Who do you think this look like? :D

If you say Johnny 5, then you enjoy the 80's, if you say Wall-E then you're a millennial .. I just build this dual imaging rig for astrophotography. You can catch more fish with two nets, same thing for astrophotography, catch more photons in less time.

That is really cool! Could you build me a lawnmower?

I don't know either of those things.

 

[SQWIB]

Holy cow.
Now I feel dumb

 

[Silentrunning]

It’s probably going to work a a lot better outdoors.

 

[Becky]

Wow, what a set up! Can't wait to see more of your photos.

P.S. Johnny 5 gets my vote, although I am familiar with both

My first test the other night was a mess, the software that I use does not support dual camera even if I open a new instance. After 4 hours of wasted time I downloaded APT which supports dual camera, plate solving and supports two filters with the same models to a single laptop down to a single 15ft USB wire.. so I have a 2.5hour window to take samples. I ended up going to bed at 6am Here is a 1hour on Elephant trunk on H-Alpha filter and Rosette Nebula using 6-filters RGB and SII, OIII and H-Alpha. Needs more data but will test with more time spent..

Just Wow!

 

[Sheal]

Yes, wow!

Can anyone else see what I can see in Rey's second shot? In the middle the upper body of a person with three dogs sitting at his/her feet. And just to the right a bit lower down, the head of a boar or similar?

 

[DirtMechanic]

Rey, if you photograph aliens heading to invade earth, please keep it to yourself.

Are you really looking through my eyes Sheal?

Not this time @DirtMechanic. Becky and Tetters can see them too! Have you never looked at the clouds and seen particular shapes?

If they're better than mine , then yes.
