Description
On Part TWO of our two-parter episode with Matt Schricker of @Bostronomy - we dig deeper into Astronomy, Astrophotography, and Telescopes. Matt shares his Astronomy on Instagram and TikTok but also has a creative style that we enjoy very much in his content. We also chat about the human experience of stargazing and how even your position on the planet can change your whole outlook on constellations! If you ever wondered about Astronomy and whether you could get into it OR if you ever thought it was too complicated - LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE! Some very down to Earth space-talk with two guys from Boston drinking some cold adult beverages and chatting about life and the "space condundrum". A perfect getaway for the holiday travel (and an escape from the holiday stess).  Please enjoy this episode with Matt Schricker and make sure to follow him @Bostronomy on Instagram and TikTok The credit for this episode's 'Astronomy Pic of the Week' goes to Matt Schricker! Our first guest Astropicture The Pleiades, an Open Cluster located 400 lightyears away in the constellation Taurus Matt captured over 24 hours of exposure for this image, exposing so much of the gas surrounding these famous star cluster that spans 15 lightyears across. The telescope used was a William Optics RedCat71 I made some color enhancemens to the image post-process for this episode to bring out some holiday colors. -------------------------- Here's to building a fantastic future - and continued progress in Space (and humanity)!
