UK: An amateur star-gazer has stunned astronomers around the world with his amazing photographs of the universe – taken from his garden shed! Star-lover Peter Shah, 38, cut a hole in the roof of his wooden shed and set up his modest eight-inch telescope inside.
And after months of patiently waiting for the right moment he emerged with a series of striking images of the Milky Way His photographs of a vivid variety of star clusters light years from Earth have been compared to the images taken from the #2.5bn Hubble space telescope.
But it cost Peter just #20,000 to equip his garden shed with a telescope linked to his home computer.
