These three planets are the ones I see the most so what's the best settings for the S50? managed to get Jupiter once but now I can't remember what settings I chose.

why are distances so large in the universe that it makes communication impossible ? (+why is lightspeed so slow)

I am using a Seestar S30 Pro in AltAz at the moment and trying to learn the basics before moving on. I think I’m setting the scope up to save each frame but I can never find them! I’m trying to use alongside plans but you don’t seem to be able to configure this in a plan. I’m clearly not quite understanding it. Does anyone have a good resource that explains it properly or can explain it to me.

I took many wonderful pictures with the standard 10 secs exposures both in AltAz and Eq mode (in the latter case using a Skywatcher tripod and Eq head). I made the polar alignment withinh the 0.3, 0.3 limits (green check), and I tried the 30 secs exposure on a galaxy (M51). The first 10 minutes I got only the first 2 frames, and the next 18 were all discarded. I made a similar try yesterday: same result. Anyone has suggestions? Should I take care of a perfect polar alignment 0.0 , 0.0? Should I calibrate something more? Could it be the building vibration (or light wind) since I live at 7th floor (rooftop)? The tripod quality and stability is excellent. The rooftop is solid (see picture). Thank you so much for your help.

The cosmonauts observed the dark side of the moon and cameras seemed to record at least 3 flashes of meteor impacts ! Dangerous place with many impacts probabilities.The eclipse looked like the beginning of our usual eclipse but after the moon is much larger in front of the sun.

How are people getting great pictures of nebulas and planets? I have the new s30 Pro and I'm finding it almost impossible to get images of anything other than the Sun or the Moon. Shooting from Kraków Poland

为什么这里显示是经纬仪?我用的是eq3d呀

Hi, I love my S30 Pro so far. Now I would love to experiment with the equatorial mode. Does anyone have a recommendation for a sweet spot in exposure time? I have read online that the S50 has a sweet spot around 20s and the S30 around 30s. Clear skies
