    When I was in elementary school I loved astronomy, I watched meteor showers, visually observed objects with my small Newton telescope etc. But later when I started to work I moved to a bigger city and this passion was somewhat forgotten. So, 2 years ago I was on a longer, work related trip on the other side of the globe. My job was hard and not necessarily what I enjoy the most, and I also missed the beautiful summer of my home second time in a row. So I decided to start something new and fun when I get home. It was that time when I started to watch this channel, and I quickly decided I'll get into astrophotography.
    I've never expected how much money and time I will spend, how many times will I freeze my *ss off outside during the cold winters, and how much frustration can be caused by such sensitive instruments. But still, the view of the summer/winter Milky Way, the first time I photograph an object and I see the first frames, or when I first see an integrated picture of an object with all the details and deepness... It was worth everything.
    So, thanks for getting me into this, and keep up the brilliant work - I am sure there are at least another 110 objects, which could, but eventually did not end up in Messier's catalogue. ;)

    I didn't think M103 was gonna be a head turner, but that was excellent! Very cool to see its lower mass brethernen, riding up the curve soon to redden, swell and pop - like so many over heating light bulbs.

    Completely fascinating. Send somebody over to the Chemistry department, please, and interview them about fun stuff in their discipline. If you can make open star clusters interesting, you can easily do the same for vicinal coupling in proton NMR spectroscopy.

    Doesn't quite seem definitive. Were they not able to get absolute distance measurements from parallax imaging?

    • @d5uncr
      @d5uncr 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The ESA Gaia mission should be able to get the exact distance to M103 using parallax, since it's able to measure distances tens of thousands of light-years away and the M103 is believed to be about 10,000 ly away.
      The previous mission, Hipparcos, could only measure up to about 1,600 ly.

    Giant stars don't stop fusing hydrogen to helium. They start fusing helium into heavier elements on the periodic table inside a shell which is still fusing hydrogen to helium.

      When physicists talk about stars, we have a bad habit of not including the phrase "in the stellar core" every sentence, but it almost always applies.

    • @duckrutt
      @duckrutt 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The stars in a cluster are the same age so at first glance the red giant is a star that happens to be in the way rather than part of the cluster. Turns out it is a member of M103 it just started life out much larger than it's siblings.

      Seti Michael Maxwell star catalogs with star magnitudes, positions, identifications, colors, etc are freely available! At the most basic you can plot things in a spreadsheet, or if you want something more advanced you can learn some data processing with python, ruby, Julia, sagemath, matlab or other programming languages.
