My name is David and I spend every clear night out under the stars with my telescope taking long exposure photographs of deep space objects.

These are my latest images that I've captured. I think it is amazing what we can see from our own backyards even in highly polluted areas! Whenever the conditions are right, I take my gear outside to create new stills and then share them with others on my Instagram profile. You can also find more of my photographs in my previous post on Bored Panda.

Wow, this is terrific !! Pillars of creation in the middle is almost like Hubble image. Can you share information about integration time per filter (SHO) and your telescope? Thanks.

Think for a moment. Galaxies have billions of stars. Those stars have Goldilocks zones, and some have planets in said zone. Those planets may host intelligent life. Anyone who thinks Earth is unique in the fact that it has life is selfish. We have proof that small bacteria used to live on Mars even!

I love the Pleiades! Outer space and Ancient Greece are my two biggest special interests and I love how much Greek mythology ties into astronomy

How do we know for sure these aren't portals to some entirely different universe or dimension, we just cant access it yet?
