As a seasoned amateur astromer for almost 60 years, I'm completely blown away by the clarity of your images from a balcony. It must be very rigid and stable.
Thanks!, Although the conditions for photographing planets from a balcony are sometimes difficult, there are many benefits of easy access. I enjoy planetary photography as my life's work.
@@MrTassadit My telescope is a Celestron C14, and I was able to watch the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics 2024 on TV. It was raining, wasn't it?
Having had a go at planetary images myself (using a Evo 8 EdgeHD), I appreciate the time, patience and detail work needed to obtain these pristine images! Thanks for posting, I really enjoyed seeing these great planets up nice and close.
I’ve got a 12” Meade OTA. My favorite target is Saturn. I do a LOT of community outreach. And EVERYBODY’s favorite is always Saturn. One time I even had NASA’s own Michelle Thaller come look through my scope at Bryce Canyon Astronomy Festival. She came over to my truck and chatted for 20 minutes with me, my wife, and some friends. She was the scheduled speaker for the event the next night. Astronomy brings people together.
Very nice video and images. Your passion for astrophotography has lead to something both scientific and artistic that millions can enjoy. Thank you for sharing your efforts with us.
Thank you for your wonderful comment. I'm uploading it to CZcams because I want people to know the excitement of being able to capture so much detail with an amateur telescope.
I subscribed just because I like your setup.. and finished the video because of the planetary images. I appreciate seeing what it looks like before and after processing as well as the mono/color comparison.
Thanks!, I think that the LRGB(mono+color) method, which combines high-resolution monochrome and color information, is the best method for planetary photography.
@@SuperRbstar I agree. As convenient as a color sensor can be, monochrome sensors make more efficient use of the available photons by doing without the Bayer matrix. I chose to go the with mono and Baader LRGB + "ultra-narrowband" filters since I live just south of NYC. Currently been using my wide-field refractor more but I love using my SCT. Before summer I plan to be better prepared to to image planets once more. I can never get enough of Jupiter and Saturn.
It amazes me how much technology has progressed, get a book from the 80s even the 90s professional observatory’s with 100plus inch scopes couldn’t get images as sharp as those, you’ve really done amazing work
Thanks!, Video digital planetary photography has become possible to obtain ultra-high resolution planetary images by image processing technology. This is unthinkable in the silver halide film era. I am grateful for the evolution of image processing technology.
Amazing video, I do deep space imaging but planetary imaging has always been a tough one for me. Your choice of music is fantastic too, do you remember what the track title is at 3:21 mark?
Thanks!, The BGM from 2:33 is below. The title is "夕陽に羽ばたく心(yuuhinihabatakukokoro):The heart that flaps in the setting sun ". amachamusic.chagasi.com/music_yuuhinihabatakukokoro.html
Great photos - they make a monumental impression! It's really worth spending a few hours at the telescope and then at the computer to get such results. Way to go! Congratulations.
Thanks!, I believe that we will have to wait to seeing the sky, but by ventilating the telescope's tube current with an electric fan, we were able to demonstrate the capabilities of C14.
Thanks!, When I see a planet shaking in its atmosphere, I can clearly see that we live on a planet with an atmosphere. If we went to a world without an atmosphere, we would be able to photograph planets in even more detail.
Wow! Very envious. My little cheap 90mm refractor shows rings of Saturn but no details, bands of Jupiter buy no detail and Mars is just a red dot. But still, just seeing these planets in realtime is awe inspiring. Rock on.
This is amazing! You took them on your balcony in the city? This is incredible, i Never thought something like that would be possible. I‘m just getting (a bit) back into the hobby, I purchased a ZWO seestar s50. Can’t wait to doo some DSI… 😁👍
I wish I'd have a friend like you with such great equipment and capabilities. Unfortunately I can't afford it to buy a professional telescope and do all the work on the computer. Thanks for your enthusiasm and sharing with us 🙏🏻
Wow ! I call your images NASA grade ! It's really amazing ! With my setup i can just kinda make out the red spot and the entirety of the major cloud bands
@@SuperRbstar I mean we amateur astrophotographers and astronomers hete are limited to the atmosphereric wobbling. That's why i am impressed you can eaven get such images. I am sure that people wouldn't differ your and online images. It's just that awesome ! It's a pitty powerful telescopes cost far mor in money. My already costed 189€. Can't imagine the cost of the camera and telescope
Thanks!, The effects of atmospheric fluctuations can now be overcome to a large extent using video digital techniques. The aperture determines how much detail of the planet can be captured. A telescope with a large aperture will cost more, but you have no choice but to look for a telescope with high cost performance. I arrived at the answer of a used Schmidt-Cassegrain.

Another set of amazing shots here. Can't wait to see the results now Jupiter and Saturn are getting higher. Have you tried Uranus or Neptune yet? I'll wager they will come out nicely.
My 2021 season hasn't started yet. Japan has entered the rainy season, and it seems that it will be a while before we shoot Saturn and Jupiter. Unfortunately, Uranus and Neptune are out of scope for me.
@@SuperRbstar I understand. I lived on the 10th floor once too. Light pollution was very bad. But i managed to find Neptune once when it was right next to Venus. Maybe one day you will be lucky and be able to find one of them.
Percival Lowell, who paid the equivalent of $880,000 for his 24-inch telescope in 1894, would be envious of your telescope and your images of Mars. Having this he could have saved hundreds of thousands of dollars and the embarrassment of identifying canals and (therefore) intelligent life on Mars. But then we wouldn't have so many wonderful science fiction novels about Martian invasions.
Thanks!, I was also unable to capture such details when visually observing with an astronomical telescope. Thanks to today's high-sensitivity digital video cameras and image processing software, it is now possible to capture ultra-detailed images of the Martian surface. I think it's thanks to the many great predecessors that I can enjoy looking at Mars.
@@SuperRbstar Yes, absolutely, the innovations of the computer and digital imaging are the game changers. Incredible results. My comment was meant as a testament to our technological advancements. It's inspiring when you consider that Lowell's state of the art technology in 1894 is weak compared to the tools that any hobbyist can now use to explore the cosmos. How fun would it be to be able to travel back in time for a day, and bring these tools to Lowell. Imagine the sense of awe he would experience.
i kinna was hoping it would come out sharper than that, for a c14? i jus bought a 25 year old used c8 for 600, came with a barlow, t-ring an adap, a 40 mil an a 16mil, still kinna new at this, but been in photography lot longer an really got it for that, and the eclipse, is this straight to yr lap top or u using a dslr at all?
Thanks!, I think it's the same even if it was a used car from 25 years ago. I believe that a digital single-lens reflex camera is not suitable for photographing planets. I think a CMOS camera for planetary photography is good.
In my case, I am doing LRGB composition (monochrome + color) using both high resolution 290MM monochrome and color information acquisition 462MC, so I need both. If you don't want LRGB compositing, we recommend the 462MC color camera.
I have a question as a newbie... I live in an apartment as well, and want to fix a Celestron on my balcony. The problem is I cannot have a wild field of view to capture everything around me. How do you handle this ?
Thanks!, ASI462MC is more sensitive than ASI224MC. The sensitivity is very high in the infrared region, but it is also slightly high in the visible light region. Since July 2020, the ASI462MC has been the main color CMOS camera.
@@SuperRbstar I assume the way you do your LRGB, the fact that the 462 and the 290 have the same pixel size and chip size simplifies the processing. But if you use an IR-cut filter, the extra infrared sensitivity is not apparent, I suspect. I have the 224MC but I am not sure it is worth upgrading. The 224MC really does have zero amp-glow so it is useful for longer exposures also. Have you tested for amp-glow on the 462?
@@douglassmith1215 The pixel size is different between ASI462MC and ASI224MC, but it is matched to the size of ASI290MM on the software when performing LRGB composition. I am using an infrared cut filter when capturing the ASI290MM and ASI462MC. I believe that both monochrome and color CMOS cameras can express the correct colors of the planet by shooting in the visible light region. I haven't tested Ampglow because I only shoot planets.
Great pics!! Is this how Jupiter is actually seen through the scope, or is it a flipped image. This is the first time I am seeing the Great Red Spot in the northern hemisphere. Even the pics by various NASA probes shows the spot in the southern hemisphere.
Thanks!, Japan, where I live, is in the northern hemisphere, and when I look at the planet with an astronomical telescope, I see the south above. My planet image is south up.
@@SuperRbstar oh I see. Is that the same for Saturn etc? The end images look too perfect, almost like they're over processed. Almost animated. Is that from the software? I'm talking about all the images I've seen, not just these.
@@richandkidarcheryandoutdoo4372 Thanks!,Saturn is also a gas planet. If conditions are good, craters may be visible on Mars. Whether the image processing is overdone is a matter of personal judgment.
Do you install your C14 every (imaging) nights, or is it a fixed installation? If so, how do you protect it from rain and all? I’m also imaging from a balcony in a city and seeing you are using a C14 is making me wondering if I shouldn’t invest...
Thanks!, My C14 is fixed to the edge of the balcony. When not in use, it is covered with a plastic bag and a bike cover. It also receives sunlight, rain, and snow. I don't think I can invest any more on my small balcony.

@@McLOVIN..... Compré mi C14 de segunda mano fabricado en 1988. Fue alrededor de $ 3000. En Japón, el Schmidt-Cassegrain de Celestron es aproximadamente el doble del precio de venta en los Estados Unidos. El pórtico lo hago yo mismo, y el C14 también está equipado con un ventilador y modificado.

ありがとうございます。街中のベランダで明るい惑星のみに邁進しています。ディープスカイには手を出しておりません。惑星撮影システムで銀河を狙っている人も居られますが、今の私は惑星のみです。
Very good excellent just shows what you can do
A long way from 1980s
This is great plus music was nice too
take a look at Jean-Luc Dauvergne, it s your clone
Thanks!, I will do my best not to lose to Jean-Luc Dauvergne.
Do you install your C14 every (imaging) nights, or is it a fixed installation? If so, how do you protect it from rain and all? I’m also imaging from a balcony in a city and seeing you are using a C14 is making me wondering if I shouldn’t invest...
Thanks!, My C14 is fixed to the edge of the balcony. When not in use, it is covered with a plastic bag and a bike cover. It also receives sunlight, rain, and snow. I don't think I can invest any more on my small balcony.
@@SuperRbstar thanks for the feedback. Can you explain how you are using a crayford focuser on your SCT? That seems very interesting for auto focus.
@@stephanegrosjean4990 Thanks!, I am using Clayford Focuser. I use my own step motor controller to focus while visually observing on the PC monitor screen.
I hope you don’t mind me asking but how much was your telescope?
Thanks!, 1988 used, $2500 in Japan (at today's rate).
hi there! i really enjoyed your video and i was wondering if you could let me know what the song at 2:33 is? it's beautiful☺️
Thanks!, The BGM from 2:33 is below.
The title is "夕陽に羽ばたく心(yuuhinihabatakukokoro):The heart that flaps in the setting sun ".

@@SuperRbstar thank you very much!
I live in England...maybe a dobsonsian would be better for atmospheric mist
Thanks!, Seeing in Japan is not so good by global standards. However, the planetary image by moving image processing has become much more detailed than the planetary image of a decade ago. I will do my best in the future.
Which application you use for derotation?
Thanks!. I'm using WinJUPOS Derotation.
WOW.....
Thanks!
Sorry to say this, isn't the video on Saturn out of focus?
Thanks!, Saturn is in focus with my C14. Seeing (air currents) is what makes it look blurry.
why does it spin so fast ?
What is it?
I remember the 14 produces must more detailed images (without any digital nonsense.)
Thanks!
Seeing is said to be bad in Japan worldwide.
Unfortunately, it is not always possible to demonstrate the capabilities of C14.
How much your setup costs?
Thanks!, I purchased a used Celestron C14 made in 1988. It was 360,000 yen in Japanese yen. The pedestal is one I made myself a long time ago.
@@SuperRbstar ok sir thank you for sharing
Thanks!
200 mm telescope for "just" 4.5k bucks!
Thanks!, I do not understand
ur stacking right?
Thanks!, I am stacked in AUTOSTAKKERT!3.
Please zoom in on the moon up to 50 m
Thanks!, I don't photograph the moon very often, but I try my best when I get the chance.
I could even make out the hexagon!
Thanks!, Hexagons are difficult to photograph unless Saturn's northern hemisphere is facing the Earth.
nice if you have the $$$$$$$$
My C14 is a used one made in 1988, and the mount is homemade.
How much?
What is "How much?"
@@SuperRbstar perdón, cuánto te costó el telescopio?
@@McLOVIN..... Compré mi C14 de segunda mano fabricado en 1988. Fue alrededor de $ 3000. En Japón, el Schmidt-Cassegrain de Celestron es aproximadamente el doble del precio de venta en los Estados Unidos.
El pórtico lo hago yo mismo, y el C14 también está equipado con un ventilador y modificado.
Great video bad music
Thanks!, Please watch with the sound off.
Too much light pollution. U need to move to the mountains
Thanks!, When photographing bright planets with a telescope, city lights have little effect, so it's okay.
