Craig SailaSome forecasts for the year ahead should only be treated as entertaining fun. Those from the Future Technology Institute, though, have — for years — been a genuine inspiration in helping my consider new solutions in the work I do
While many on the 2024 list are to be expected, the list is still an interesting read, if only to see the why and how of each trend highlighted

Dave xxxiv 🇨🇦📷🔭✨M101 gifted us with a nice bright supernova last Spring - SN2023ixf.
My crappy weather continued over the summer and I had to grab whatever few clear sky openings I could get, so results for some targets were noisy and not "deep". But still interesting!
In addition to clouds, it seems that the Helix nebula in particular likes to hide behind houses, powerlines and trees! Perhaps I'll have better luck next year 🤪

Took more subs in 2023 vs 2022, but less usable subs. 🤪 'Clear' nights ... not-so-clear? Perhaps also I was more 'enthusiastically' throwing out questionable subs!
In March, had fun chasing the "Box" galaxy (Caldwell 21, NGC 4449) - managed to (just barely!) pick up it's tidal star trail. A decent feat for my Bortle 5/6 skies.
On March 2, took a short walk from my place to capture the Jupiter/Venus conjunction.

Damien CauquilLe planning des streams de la semaine est là ! Cette semaine on va faire le point sur 2023 et planifier des trucs pour 2024, et hacker des trucs apparemment 😅 #hny2024
2023 weather was not as cooperative as 2022 for my backyard observatory #astrophotography:
Imaging nights: 81 (2022: 98)
Targets: 27 (2022: 35)
Total subs: 5016 (2022: 4757)
Usable subs: 2241 (2022: 2800)
Discarded subs*: 2775 (2022: 1957)
Usable imaging hours: 148 (2022: 217)
Avg time / target: 5.5 (2022: 6.2hrs)
*power lines, wx, tracking
As usual, some results turned out decent, others not so much :=)
Here are some results from Jan/Feb of 2023.
NatyNew year, new beginnings. I think this might be the year for me to start new chapters. January is the month to get the momentum charged up, so I will be giving it my best to get spirits up and have my head held high, and taking baby, but firm, steps ahead. No matter what stage you're in in life, I wish you the very best with what's to come. Not all who wander are lost. May 2024 be a better year; and I really do wish all of humankind 🌐 to live in peace. ☮️ #newyear2024 #hny2024
