Supernovae SN 2021hpr andSN 2021do are showing together in the same galaxy, NGC 3147. This is not happening every night and we are happy to share this rare sight with you. The image above...
We imaged asteroid (15006) Samcristoforetti, named after Samantha Cristoforetti, the first Italian woman in space. The image above comes from the average of seven, 300-second exposures, unfiltered, remotely taken with the “Elena” (PlaneWave 17″+Paramount ME+SBIG...
Nine months after its discovery, we observed supernova SN 2020nlb in Messier 85 again: of course, it continues to fade. We also updated our lightcurve. The image above comes from the average of five,...
