Astrophotography

Deep Sky Objects: Nebula and Galaxies

Astrophotography is using a telescope and a specialized camera to take extremely exposure photos of distant, deep sky objects like nebula and galaxies that are millions of light years away. It's like looking back in time. The images seen here are a glimpse of how a remote part of our universe looked millions of years ago. All images seen here were captured in either San Jose, California or Sydney, Australia from 2015 onward.
