ASTRONOMY
I was fascinated by space since I was a little kid. In april 2021 I started my journey as amateur astronomer. Since then I performed lots of observations of various celestial objects like planets, star clusters, nebulae, galaxies or comets. I decided to create this page as personal log of objects I already had the pleasure to see through my telescopes.
My usual places are west or east coast of Kralova water reservoir because it is relatively remote and has quite low light pollution. If light pollution is not an issue (planetary / moon observations) I watch directly from balcony of my home, which is comfortable and no time consuming logistic is necessary. I use altazimuth mount so I manually navigate the telescope through the sky. I really enjoy this because it is a challenge to find some dim objects without aed tracking device. Of course this would be very difficult without a map so i use SkySafari mobile app, which is really awesome and provides lots of useful infos and descriptions. Sometimes I use small handheld binocular for roaming around the sky. Before observing session it is important to know not only cloudiness but the overall sky condition. Meteoblue website provides great info for astronomy seeing.
