Orion Widefield

[Ptarmigan]

Here's a photo of Orion I took. First serious astrophoto. Not the best quality though, but good overall. It inclues Canis Major and Lepus.

As you said not the best quality, but it is a very, very cool picture. Keep it up!

Thanks man! Everytime I starwatch, I think in the future those stars could one day be colonized. I bet some of those systems in the Wing Commander Universe takes place in those very star systems I observe through my telescope.

Is the glow at the bottom from light pollution or the sun set? Great picture though. Very relaxing.

Light pollution. Light pollution is really bad in the city.

I could see the belt and all, although I am not much of an astronomer but I like that pic, not 2 bad mate!!

Look a little closer.

That must be from the remake, because in the first pic it's cloacked.

Definetly not Gemini Gold!

I see the Orion ship and constellation. Cool.

I wished in Privateer you can buy a cloaking device.

In the Remake they had a cloaking device, but it was removed in the latest version.

Gemini Gold or non Gemini Gold?

You'd win that bet: Orion includes Rigel, the site of the depot captured by the TCS Gettysburg during the mutiny.

So... pay yourself.

Non-GG.
