I love revisiting nebulae and galaxies year on year, but there is a very special feeling that comes with imaging a once in a lifetime object!
'The Green Comet' has not been visible from Earth for 50,000 years (at this point in time humans were only starting to use tools). It won't be back for another 50,000 years and some scientists are saying it may never return to the inner solar system.

This was a major vibe I really enjoyed watching! Hope you keep up with your astrophotography

@TheCudder4life Год назад

I was so disappointed when I couldn't see the comet naked eye!

@astrowesson2310 Год назад

Really nice image! I completely agree, the ASIAir is amazing. I've used NINA and it's fantastic, but I love ASIAir's interface. When I started doing astrophotography (inspired by your content as well), I went for all ASI gear. Filter wheel, camera, autofocuser, Air. When you have all the components working in the software it all goes so seamlessly.

I too have the 2600MC along with an ASIair plus. Love it. Good luck at university

Very nice portable rig! I also love my ASIAIR. It saves my many headaches and makes my nights very productive. A must!

You picked a beauty of a target for your first imaging session with the mini and 2600MC Pro. I have the ASIAIR Pro and 2600MC Pro. Incredible set up. The ASIAIR makes everything from focusing, to polar alignment to imaging to guiding to meridian flips a breeze. Enjoy your new rig! Dr B from Manitoba, Canada 🇨🇦

I am one of those spoiled people who remembers comets Hyakutake and Hale Bopp which came pretty close together in the 1990's. They were amazing! I remember Hyakutake's tale spanning the sky over my house to the naked eye. Fantastically amazing. I hope you get to enjoy an experience like that at some point in your life. Perhaps next year we might have a great showing with Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS). It is showing signs of a lot of potential.

@HelenasAstrophotography Год назад

That sounds truly incredible, Brian, even the way you describe it gets me excited for future sightings! Thank you so much for sharing.

I saw Hayakutake and Hale Bopp.I photographed Hale Bopp using a Canon AE1 Program camera and print film and lost the prints when I moved house

Asiair is next on my list of astro gear. Saw a mate using his a couple nights ago for the comet. Amazed how easy it is. I think I'd want to get a tablet to go with it rather than use my phone, so I can keep my phone free.

Good Capture Helena!

@avt_astro206 Год назад

Great Shot Helena!! The comet looks Amazing.

@astronebulee578 Год назад

Great to see you back Helena. Lovely image too 👏, I love my asiair pro and like you say easy to set up and set an imaging run going and all from your phone. Good luck when you're at Uni. Looking forward to the travel rig videos 👍

Really nice setup and final image! The asiair mini does so many things well with so much less money than the pro model. Really good with an ipad. Also i spied a samyang 135, that is the smartest gear pick know to mankind.

@twobrotherskayaking4736 Год назад

Nice work. Just got about 10 min of exposures last night of the C2022 E3. Used my Redcat51 with the asi2600mc and asiair plus, so was widefield and had Mars in there too. Isn't this a grand time to be alive and imaging??!! Thanks for the view and cs!!

@robl6933 Год назад

Nice shot!

@dheerajmekala9248 Год назад

I use ZWO 2600MC and it's marvelous so far. I take only long exposure(mostly 600 to 1000secs) single shots and the pictures come out great!! 😊

@craiglowery4427 Год назад

Glad you're caught the comet Helena. I just imaged it flying by Mars on 10 Feb 2023. Good luck in school. I bet you're a science and math major

@weathercat4 Год назад

That's a great final shot. Did you mention what scope/lens you were using? I might have missed it.

@HelenasAstrophotography Год назад

The Samyang 135mm F2!

@Jimo368 Год назад

Nice work. I went out a couple times on clear nights but the -35 temps made it difficult

@madelynbrown5230 Год назад

Lucky you! I tried to capture and here in the Pacific Northwest cloudy days...

@debbiewhitaker2487 Год назад

I think I will probably use an ASIAIR device when I get a ZWO camera. I would have friends to help me with it. With NINA I would be on my own. The ASIAIR seems straightforward.

@HelenasAstrophotography Год назад

I've come to the ASI AIR after using NINA, Debbie, and it is so easy to use straight out of the box. So far have had no crashes or bugs that I was used to dealing with in NINA. Fingers crossed you have a similar positive experience!

@davidheflin5847 Год назад

I just purchased the ZWO Air and I am still deciding on what camera to purchase . Your review of the 2600 will be valuable , currently I am considering the 071. Thank you for your reviews.

@HelenasAstrophotography Год назад

Thank you so much David! More on the 2600 to come in the future. I have only heard great things about the 071!

@fotografm Год назад

Great video. What subject will you study at uni ?

@qzorn4440 Год назад

Sweet! So much to keep up on and videos like this one is a great DIY for real video. 😎 Thanks. PS is this the camera that is being tested? Amazon $1950 ZWO ASI2600MC-Pro 26 Megapixel USB3.0 Cooled Color Astronomy Camera for Astrophotography 3.5 frames per second

@HelenasAstrophotography Год назад

It is indeed!

@guyjordan8201 Год назад

Nice. Weather tells us when it’s time to observe. Ha ha. Hope you post the review of your whole university rig, I’m curious.

@HelenasAstrophotography Год назад

Coming very soon! Cheers Guy :)

@arielatomhc Год назад

Can a laptop do everything a ASI Air can do?

@astrofotografiaycafe. Год назад

Absolutely brilliant photo. Congrats. By the way Helena, I sent you a message on instagram a few days ago about a possible collaboration. Don't know if you saw it. Anyway, congrats again on the image.

@HelenasAstrophotography Год назад

I am so sorry I have just seen this! Please feel free to message on Instagram :)

@@HelenasAstrophotography hey Helena, don't worry. I just sent you a message. Thanks a lot.
