- The Deep Sky Collective presents: M31 - the kilohour project and the quest for Oiii (app.astrobin.com)
After half a year of work, the Deep Sky Collective is happy to present its latest project - a kilo hour on M31. Not only does this image set new boundaries of what’s possible with collaborative imaging, its release also marks the DSC’s anniversary project! Being launched the 13rd February last year, we never thought we could achieve what we did so far - huge thanks to everyone involved in the DSC and for keeping on believing in what we do.
- Fast ice (Wikipedia)
Fast ice (also called land-fast ice, landfast ice, and shore-fast ice) is sea ice or lake ice that is “fastened” to the coastline, to the sea floor along shoals, or to grounded icebergs. Fast ice may either grow in place from the sea water or by freezing pieces of drifting ice to the shore or other anchor sites. Unlike drift (or pack) ice, fast ice does not move with currents and winds.
