An in depth look at astrophotography and astronomy on the Apple Macintosh platform. If you’re looking for a place to get started, check out my introduction to astrophotography on the Mac. I also do reviews of the equipment I own or get loaned from others. If you wish to support this site, please use my Agena Astro links when you buy any equipment. At no cost to you, Agena will send a few bucks my way to cover the costs of hosting the site. Thanks!
