NGC 4038: Antennae Galaxies

About Starman Background and working methods.

Welcome! I'm an amateur astrophotographer chasing faint light at the edge of perception. I chose the pseudonym 'Starman' so that the focus stays centered on the work, and not weighed down by the gravity of a name.

Most of what you see here began its journey millions of years ago. My role is simply to wait, collect, and iterate long enough for the signal to emerge. From remote skies above the Andes to quiet hours behind the processing desk, this work is a practice in patience: gathering photons sub-by-sub, night-after-night, until structure reveals itself.
