Yeah, the moon had finished transit about 30 minutes earlier and is off to the lower left (outside the scope of the image).

Here's the refined version, made by the "morhping" option to ninox, this is where you provide a reference image and ninox morphs (distorts) all the raw frames so that the major features all line up with the reference image. The end result is a sequence where all the primary features are in exactly the same place.

One day soon I'll write up a page about it, but it's described on the ninox page (http://www.acquerra.com.au/astro/software/ninox).

So anyway, here's the resulting image, not that all these images are resampled to 150% of original size.

This image is larger than previous images because I added more extension onto my 5x powermate last night, getting to about 14.3m focal length. Jupiter almost filled the height of the ccd :-)

regards, Bird
