Lunar Eclipse 2026

Lunar Eclipse 2026 Camp: It kicked off with a cosmic comedy or error: 15mins when event started my power station suddenly shut off, and my Nikon + Tamron Lens duo collapse with dead battery. Just when it seemed the cosmos would slip away, my trusty Redcat 51 Telescope + ASI533mc camera swooped in ready to capture the Moon’s grand performance. Managed to get everything rolling just before totality, and the show went on. These images of Lunar Exlipse are drawn from the Eclipse video…

4 days of astro camp, relaxing, cold nights, and silent skies — documenting 2 deep-space subjects millions of light-years away. NGC 2659 & NGC 3372

NGC 3372 - The Carina Nebula or Eta Carinae Nebula
,
- is a large, complex area of bright and dark nebulosity in the constellation Carina, and it is located in the Carina–Sagittarius Arm. The nebula is approximately 8,500 light-years (2,600 pc) from Earth.
The nebula is one of the largest diffuse nebulae in our skies. Although it is four times as large as and even brighter than the famous Orion Nebula, the Carina Nebula is much less well known due to its location in the southern sky. It was discovered by Nicolas-Louis de Lacaille in 1752 from the Cape of Good Hope.

NGC 2659: A Young Cluster in Vela ✨
Nestled in the constellation Vela, NGC 2659 is a dazzling open star cluster about 5,500 light years away. At only 7.8 million years old, it’s a cosmic nursery brimming with hot, massive stars—some spinning so fast they glow with emission lines, known as Be stars.

Six hours from Manila, through the scenic roads of Mountain Province, lies Lake Tabayo—one of the highest and coldest places in the Philippines. Located in Kabayan, Benguet at 2,206 meters above sea level, it sits near the foot of Mount Pulag. During the Amihan season, temperatures can plunge to 1°C in the early morning, making camping here a true test of cold and calm.
