the rosette nebula with a new camera

the camera i use for astrophotography finally died (an old sony a6000)
i managed to get a sony a6300 that is astronomy modified.

the first shot is with the old camera the second one with the new one. (I know they are flipped,thats just due to when they were shot)

Texas AG demands names,address ss numbers etc of trans kids

he sent a letter to PFLAG demanding "complete names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, jobs, home addresses, telephone numbers, [and] email addresses."
