On Halloween night I set up my telescope in my driveway and showed Saturn to trick-or-treaters. As the night wore on I realized I could see at least four of Saturn’s moons. I’m not sure I’d noticed more than Titan before. To be fair I was usually looking at the rings, which are edge-on now.

The Orion Nebula, shot with my iPhone 16 Pro through the eyepiece of a small refracting telescope. Why? Because I can! Honestly, it turned out better than I expected it would. This is a 30-second “night mode” shot.
