Wow, just got my digital edition of the August Sky & Telescope and look who wrote the cover article?!  Our own Akarsh.  Congrats sir, well-deserved. And a binocular topic too, can’t wait to use it to guide observing through my AnalogSky Heart binos.

Wow, it’s a pleasure waking up to this. Thank you, folks!

David, you’ll see an observation mentioned in the very same model of binoculars you have! I didn’t want to spill the beans last week! :)

Congrats Akarsh!  I'm not surprised, since I knew when you were writing it 😁

Congrats Akarsh! What timing!  I'm soon starting to observe the Astronomical League's Dark Nebulae program -- a great list of Barnards and LDNs.

I just finished reading your article, Akarsh. It is amazing! 
The picture of IC 5146 with B168 is particularly beautiful.
I am going to look for some dark nebulae tonight!

I did not know you had a website https://asimha.net/
