The sheer immensity of the true sky is a sight to behold, and where better to behold it than Death Valley's very own Badwater Basin? A picture that gives the vibes of the best romanticist sci-fi: "Where We're Going".

made a little meme of myself for my followers to get to know me better

Hey #astronomers ! What are your thoughts about Tele Vue re-releasing their famous 24mm Panoptic eyepiece but now without undercuts? It also appears production has shifted from Taiwan to Japan. If you have an existing 24mm Pan with the undercuts, would you consider buying the new one? If you were holding off, does the lack of an undercut encourage you to buy one? Note, Tele Vue's new range of Type 7 Naglers are also sans-undercut!

Personally, I've never had a problem with undercuts, and all my Tele Vue eyepieces have them. But I don't own the 24mm Panoptic. The fact it has no undercut has no influence on whether I'd buy one or not. How about you?

M31 (Messier 31 and NGC 224) also commonly known as the Andromeda Galaxy, the nearest major galaxy to our Milky Way. Two satellite galaxies are also in the frame, M32 (Messier 32 and NGC 221) is on the left and M110 (Messier 110 and NGC 205) is on the right.

It was a bit cloudy earlier, but just stepped outside and seen Jupiter and Mars, bright as buttons. Orion and the Southern Cross are clearly visible and the Milky Way is sitting above our house .

Close to Orion was Sirius, which was brighter than Jupiter tonight, and I learned that a bright, blue coloured star near Sirius is called Mirzam.
