astrophotography

Astrophotography is the art and science of capturing images of astronomical objects, such as stars, planets, and galaxies. This specialized photography often requires long exposure times to gather enough light from distant celestial bodies, which are faint and far away. Photographers use telescopes or long lenses along with cameras, often equipped with sensitive sensors. Techniques like stacking multiple images can enhance details and reduce noise. Astrophotography allows us to explore the universe's beauty and complexity, revealing structures and phenomena that may not be visible to the naked eye, thus deepening our understanding of the cosmos.
