The Bubble Nebula taken by member Tina Bishop using a Dwarf3 smart scope.

''The Bubble Nebula, also known as NGC 7635, Sharpless 162, or Caldwell 11, is an H II region emission nebula in the constellation Cassiopeia. It lies close to the open cluster Messier 52.'' Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_Nebula

Messier 52 is the cluster of stars to the bottom right of the Bubble Nebula.  The Bubble Nebula is in the middle of the image.  If you zoom in on the bubble nebula you will see the outline of a bubble shape.

Also in the image is NGC 7538, a diffuse nebula which is the red area to the bottom left of the Bubble Nebula.  It is located in the constellation Cepheus and is about 9,100 light-years from Earth. It is a region of active star formation.

Three great images taken by John Archer using a Dwarf3 smart scope from East Sussex.

The CON western Cyg image is of the western part of the Cygnus Constellation.

''Cygnus is a northern constellation on the plane of the Milky Way, deriving its name from the Latinized Greek word for "swan". Cygnus is one of the most recognizable constellations of the northern summer and autumn, and it features a prominent asterism known as the Northern Cross. Cygnus was among the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd-century astronomer Ptolemy, and it remains one of the 88 modern constellations.'' Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cygnus_(constellation)

''NGC 281, IC 11 or Sh2-184 is a bright emission nebula and part of an H II region in the northern constellation of Cassiopeia and is part of the Milky Way's Perseus Spiral Arm...... Colloquially, NGC 281 is also known as the Pacman Nebula for its resemblance to the video game character.'' Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NGC_281

The Moon image was taken on the 27th October 2026.

On the 25th August 2026 a new Nova in the constellation Sagitta was discovered.

A few hours after the announcement member Kevin Smith managed to take an image of it using his Dwarf3 smart scope and posted it on the BAA forum https://britastro.org/forums/topic/likely-bright-nova-in-sagitta

The Nova is highlighted on Kevin's image by the 2 small yellow lines at right angles to each other.  The bright star to the left is delta Sagittae.

''The object was picked up on August 25, 2026, by the NMW-TexasTech survey, one of several automated sky-patrol programs that scan wide swaths of sky night after night looking for exactly this kind of change. Within the same day, amateur astronomer K. Yoshimoto in Yamaguchi, Japan, logged a magnitude of 7.42 — a striking brightness for an object that, by all indications, wasn't visible at all before the eruption. The discovery was formalized through the Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams (CBAT), the Harvard-hosted clearinghouse astronomers have relied on for over a century to rapidly circulate news of transient objects. CBAT assigned it the provisional designation PNV J19450648+1822422, pinning its position at RA 19h45m06.48s, Dec +18°22'42.2"

Provisional designations don't last long once a spectrum comes in. Follow-up spectroscopy revealed the signature astronomers were watching for: clear P Cygni profiles in the hydrogen-alpha and hydrogen-beta lines, with expansion velocities around 1,500 kilometers per second. That combination — a blueshifted absorption trough sitting next to an emission peak, produced by material blasting outward from the star faster than the speed of a jet engine's exhaust by a factor of thousands — is close to a textbook confirmation of a classical nova. The object has since been given its permanent variable-star name: Nova Sagittae 2026, or V488 Sge.'' Ref:https://www.cosmicherald.com/article/nova-sagittae-v488-sge-2026

Three fantastic full tracked panorama images of the Milky Way taken by member Danny Pearce whilst on holiday in June on La Palma. All images were taken from locations above the cloud inversion.

All of the images were taken with a Nikon Z6iii on a Skywatcher Star adventurer Mini tracker. Foregrounds were captured at dusk without tracking (9 panels) and sky as 9 x 120sec panorama and stitched in Lightroom.
