“The nitrogen in our DNA, the
calcium in our teeth, the iron
in our blood, the carbon in
our apple pies were made in
the interiors of collapsing
stars. We are made of star
stuff". Carl Sagan

RoscoeSkies Observatory
The RoscoeSkies Observatory (RSO) started its design phase in
December 2012. First light was in June 2013. The RSO is mainly
dedicated to the narrow band imaging of nebulae. The observatory is
completely remote controlled and operated by Dennis Roscoe, Ph.D. Dr.
Roscoe teaches astrophotography and astronomy at the University of
Wisconsin in Waukesha.
Schulman Telescope, SkyCenter, Mt. Lemmon, AZ
On May 14, 2018, I booked an imaging session on the Schulman 0.8m telescope. I
collected image data for seven glorious hours on M101. A trip of a life time! Click
