Southern Cross region photographed from the SpaceX Dragon Crew 9 vehicle using my orbital sidereal tracker (See prior postings for its details).
Nikon Z9, Sigma 14mm f1.4 lens, SkyWatcher modified tracker set to 0.064 degrees per second, 15 sec exposure, f1.4, ISO 12800, adjusted by Babak Tafreshi from nef (I don’t have the computer capability on orbit for detailed image adjustment)
This is an insane shot! What is that red region above Earth? Also, does light reflecting from Earth effect the visibility of the space?
Wow, what an amazing view. Thanks for sharing with us. Safe travels 🙏 ✨️
Awesome pic. If I was there – would be by the window whole time churning butter
When you see the southern cross for the first time
You understand now why you came this way
The truth you might be runnin’ from is so small
But it’s as big as the promise, the promise of a comin’ day
I’m simply astounded by the number of stars you get to see beyond the atmosphere.
