Un Œil Noir sur Tauxigny

Au cours de la nuit du 16 au 17 mai à Tauxigny, lors de la rencontre NAT 2015, les nuages et les éclaircies s'alternaient dans le ciel tourangeau. J'ai malgré tout tenté une cible qui me tenait à cœur : M64, dite la galaxie de l'Œil Noir, dans la constellation de la Chevelure de Bérénice.

Je l'ai cadrée bien au milieu de l'image car cette galaxie ne semble pas avoir de compagne à proximité, ce qui est assez étrange dans cette constellation de la Chevelure, pourtant riche en univers-îles. Et malgré un début de prise de vue à 23h30 et une fin à 4h30, je n'ai pu sauver que 26 poses, les autres étant soit noyées dans les nuages, soit présentées des défauts de suivi.

C'est bien dommage car je sens que cela pourrait être mieux… mais il faudra que je me contente de ce résultat… pas si mal finalement ;)

Je dédicace cette image aux membres de la SAT et espère ainsi alléger leur peine d'avoir perdu tout récemment un des fondateurs de leur association et de l'Observatoire de Tauxigny, Christian Juin.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
