Next 25 May 2025, the Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (390725) 2003 HB will a relatively close and obviously safe encounter with our planet, coming at come as close as 7 million of km from...
Here it is supernova SN 2025bvm in the nice spiral galaxy NGC 5957, imaged with our robotic telescopes. The image above comes from the average of 6, 120-second, unguided exposures, unfiltered, remotely taken with...
We captured the near-Earth Asteroid 2025 HC while it was safely approaching for the 20 Apr. 2025 flyby with the Earth. It came as close as 464.000 km from the center of the Earth,...
We did follow-up observations of the Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (612356) 2002 JX8, slowly approaching our planet: on 9 May 2025, it will safely come as close as 4.2 millions of km from us, 10.9...
We managed to image the giant galaxy Messier 87, the queen of the Virgo Cluster, capturing its relativistic jet with nice details. The image above comes from the sigma-clipping combination of 9, 120-second, unguided...
We present our image of the edge-on, spiral galaxy NGC 4244. The image above comes from the average of 16, 300-second exposures, remotely taken with the ARTEC250+Paramount ME+C3Pro61000EC robotic unit available as part of...
We imaged asteroid (4) Vesta at opposition: it is the brightest minor planet, barely visible to the naked eye under dark skies. The image above comes from a single 30-second exposure, remotely taken with...
Messier 104, also known as NGC 4594 and nicknamed “Sombrero” because of its shape, shows its intrigate texture of dust and stars in our image below. The image above comes from the sigma-clipping combination...
We imaged supernova SN 2023ixf in the stunning Messier 101 spiral galaxy, as part of our follow-up of this transient, 23 months after its explosion. The image above comes from the average of 11,...
We captured an outstanding corner of the deep sky, showing a few galaxies of speechless beauty: NGC 4156 with its supernova SN 2025bvm, NGC 4151 and NGC 4145. The image above comes from the...
We imaged the legendary NGC 6543 planetary nebula, nicknamed “Cat’s Eye” because of its shape, sharing the same spot with a nice galaxy, NGC 6552. Here it is such a wonderful picture. The image...
We detected the optical afterglow of GRB 250430A, about 4.75 hours after the burst. On 30 April 2025 at 17:21:31 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and located GRB 250430A (trigger=1308754). This...
We spotted again the Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (612356) 2002 JX8, tracking it while it slowly approaches our planet: on 9 May 2025, it will safely come as close as 4.2 millions of km from...
We captured a truly extreme image of comet C/2025 F2 SWAN, after its disintegration and with just a few dust still visible. Here we present our picture. The image above comes from the average...
