As you all know,this year is the International Year of Astronomy, a perfect time to own a telescope. But unfortunately, KL is the worst place to star gaze. Everyday are cloudy...haih. Sweat not,because you know what,during the 100 hours of Astronomy event, they allow anyone to control a telescope around the world online FREE.And i choose New Brunswick,Canada. but during then when i used the telescope ,the sky was cloudy,so they refund the credits. And today local time Malaysia 3.00 pm. ,in News Brunswick around 4.00 am, i used again. And it was INCREDIBLE !!!
Ok more detailly,I PERSONALLY controlled a 10 inch Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope in New Brunswick ,Canada online.So heres the photo.
(click to enlarge)
This is the control program la.You can see in the bottom left is the actual photo in the observatory. In the right is the skymap.
And you can see im taking a photo of the moon =)
They gave me 30 minutes only =( so too little thing you can do. Especially when you take a photo ,usually you need at least 1 minute of exposure.So yea......
The double star(Supposedly a double double star,but you cannot see it from this photo) of Mizar in the constellation of Ursa Major
Messier 13, a star cluster from the constellation of Hercules.
And last but not least Messier 81, a spiral galaxy from the constellation of Ursa Major too.
Note: I took these photos personally le, with my own hand.Lol,no kidding,sorry if there are no colour la.....
