Happy Solstice 2020!

Happy Solstice 2020!

The evening began with a beautiful sunset:

Happy Solstice 2020!
Happy Solstice 2020!

...though pretty clouds meant Jupiter and Saturn's closest dance was a little fuzzy:

Happy Solstice 2020!

They'd traded places and moved much closer than on Saturday:

Happy Solstice 2020!

This longer Saturday exposure shows Saturn's biggest moon, Titan (arrow), and all four of Jupiter's Galilean moons:

Happy Solstice 2020!

...and here's Jupiter's moons plus Titan (arrow; another arrow points out Amalthea hugging its parent world) tonight:

Happy Solstice 2020!

Happy Great Conjunction Day!

South of Carina Nebula

South Of Carina Nebula

With natal dust clouds in silhouette against glowing atomic gas, this colorful and chaotic vista lies within one of the largest star forming regions in the Milky Way galaxy, the Great Carina Nebula. The telescopic close-up frames a field of view about 80 light-years across, a little south and east of Eta Carinae, the nebula's most energetic and enigmatic star. Captured under suburban skies improved during national restrictions, a composite of narrowband image data was used to create the final image. In it, characteristic emission from the nebula's ionized sulfur, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms is mapped to red, green and blue hues, a color palette also popular in Hubble Space Telescope. The celestial landscape of bright ridges of emission bordered by cool, obscuring dust lies about 7,500 light-years away toward the southern constellation Carina.
