If you have ever wondered why galaxies, nebulae, etc. have the shapes and colours that the all the astrophotos show. And if you have always wanted to venture into the world of astrophotography to photograph those objects yourself. Then, this is your podcast! Here we will talk, in a clear and easy way, about the science behind all those images taken with the big telescopes. This will helps us planning better our astrophotography sessions and get the maximum out of our astrophotography sessions. We will also talk about the equipment needed to enter the world of landscape and deep field astrophotography, processing techniques and workflows. Would you come with me to this amazing journey around the cosmos?

17 MAY 2019 · Imagine that you are a detective who suddenly hears a gunshot. However, you can not walk to the area from which the noise came to see exactly what just happened, how would you solve the case? With this premise today I start talking about the process that we have been following to disclose and understand the physics of the super interesting gamma ray bursts. At the end of the episode I also solve some of the questions that you have sent me during this week.

9 MAY 2019 · This week’s episode is aimed at those who are interested in buying your first telescope or upgrading to a bigger one. I explain the pros and cons of each of the types of telescopes, their prices, their problems… And of course, I also mention the mounts that we need to be able to do astrophotography.
During the episode I mention some brands that I feel I can trust when choosing a telescope. These are: Skywatcher, Celestron, Meade, Orion, Vixen, Explore Scientific, William Optics, TS and Takahashi.

2 MAY 2019 · Galaxies and nebulae require long exposure times and need large amounts of images. This week I talk in detail about my workflow to make observe deep sky objects either with DSLRs and lenses or with more advanced tools such as telescopes and dedicated cameras. From the planning, to processing, I reveal all the steps and steps needed to get the final image that we were always wanting.

25 APR 2019 · The night sky in May bring us a lot of different options for both north and Southern hemispheres. In particular, this month we will be able to observe the Eta Aquarids meteor shower, the best meteor shower of 2019. It is also a fantastic month to photography deep sky objects in the are of the Milky Way and to photograph Jupiter in all its power. Learn on this episode the tricks to successfully photograph all these sources as well as other interest ones visible during this next month.

11 APR 2019 · On April 10, 2019, the first image of a black hole taken with the Event Horizon telescope was published. This telescope uses a technique called interferometry to combine the observations of multiple observatories located throughout Earth. In this episode I describe the importance of this discovery within the world of astrophysics and physics in general and I cover in detail what information the image offers us.

4 APR 2019 · This week I talk about how astronomers live at an observatory doing scientific observations for almost a week. I also tell you about the preparation that goes with it before going. Through examples of projects made by my students I show you the amount of science that can be done with simple images and I encourage you to look at your astronomical images with different eyes.
