Bluesky team! It finally happened! I used my Seestar for the first time and it was AMAZING!
I haven't really worked out all the tricks yet, so these are the straight up images of what I got (including the out of focus Andromeda from the start of the night) 🔭✨🤩

Longer integration times and it will def. get rid of lots of that noise.
There is also an in-built h-aplha/[O-III] filter that will really make the nebulae pop!
If S50 they have a reasonable wifi distance. I leave mine in my backyard and come inside with my tablet whilst it’s collecting photons. Otherwise def. too cold 🥶
If it’s reasonable to do so, and you are within 7-10m distance, try it out. Game changer for me!
I think I saw a Smart Telescope starter pack as well, so jump into that!
keep it up and you can eventually make nice images
here's a backyard image from the San Francisco Bay area
it's about 7.5 hours of exposure
(This month has been so fulll of clouds, though...)
