Description
My first astrophotograph of a dwarf planet, Ceres! She's been classified as a bunch of different things over the years: planet, asteroid, and now a dwarf planet. Catching this shot was tricky, as Virgo was low in the sky, there was light-pollution from a streetlight, and Ceres didn't stand out too well from the surrounding stars, but I eventually managed to find the mark.My Equipment:
-Apertura AD8 Dobsonian Telescope
-Meade 26mm Super Plossl Eyepiece
-Celestron Smartphone Adapter
-iPhone SE (2nd Gen)
