Centre of our Galaxy. Sagittarius A

[PKay]

By now you have heard about the image capture of our own black hole.

Tonight it is clear and it is in full view (3am the Moon has fcked off).

Why not train our scopes and have a look?

RA 17h 45m 0s Dec -29 01 28 Or thereabouts.

Just for fun...

Hmmm,

That Sag A was my guess for Webb's first image due out later next month (hopefully)...

Begs the question what Webb's glam object will be, to set the tone for 10+years of scientific research...

Oldest maybe?

Nice challenge..here’s one I prepared earlier.

If you squint you can clearly see Sag a ( or not..) ��

I would love to give it a go. Cloud and rain here are a disappointment. I wish they would fck off!! :(

Yoh Steve, I reckon it don't matter where they point that thing, it will amaze...





Hi Dave, nice try. I grabbed the magnifying glass and only saw dust on the screen



You had to say the f word Kev. The clouds have moved in here as well :rain:



After all that beer Mike, you never cease to amaze me :cheers:
