3/21/2012

Kodak Z740 piggybacked on a Meade Polaris Refractor.

By slowly slewing the telescope during the 8 second exposure, I was able to capture the colors that were emitted by these stars. The colors are produced by the prism effect in our atmosphere. Sirius by far, emits the widest variety of colors.
