Gassendi and a Tectonic Wrinkle

[Dave882]

Final images from my lunar session this last week...

Gassendi is a real favourite of mine, and even though the conditions were rapidly deteriorating, managed to resolve some nice detail with the surrounding Mare Humorum and up to Mersenius.

This was the first time I've ever spent time on the Mare Ridges (in fact I had to research to even find out what I was even looking at!). What an intriguing area - and the light was just right at a beautiful angle so that the small elevated craters on the ridges/wrinkles were casting intriguing shadows. They honestly looked like volcanic mountains!! The multidome Rümker was also contrasted near the terminator.

One tiiiiny problem tho- my laptop ran out of storage at the end of the capture and seems to have corrupted the final file, and I now have a 34GB AVI that won't open :sadeyes:. I had a short test capture of only a few seconds that's I've processed anyway but soo disappointed as that would have been such an intriguing image... :bashcomp::bashcomp::bashcomp:

Same setup as the previous post (https://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=205366)

Thanks for dropping by for a look!

Nice work again Dave, good to see something a bit different, as in the Mons Rumker region and the wrinkle ridges. Gassendi and all the rilles, fractures etc. are always an interesting sight as well.
Is there any way, must be some way, you can copy the errant avi to another hard drive that is not full so that you can play with it.

Continually making space on the hard drives is always a battle, is so easy to gather 10s' of gigabytes of data in an hour or so of lunar, planetary or solar imaging. I now have several terabytes I've gathered over the past few years.
Was out on Friday evening doing some imaging of some of the regions you'd done on your previous post and had taken about 25Gb without really trying .

Love the Gassendi image, so much detail.:thumbsup::)

Sorry to hear about the corrupted file.:sadeyes:

Cheers

Agree with Dennis, the Gassendi image is just WoW! Spent ages checking out all the features.

For the offending early terminated video, have you looked at any of these options.

Top shots David. Well done. It’s great you didn’t lose Gassendi.:thumbsup:

Really nice shots David - lots of interesting features.

Thanks guys - was lovely having some good conditions. I reckon that's the best capture of Gassendi for me, but funny it didn't look that good on the screen especially with the clouds rolling through - guess you just don't know till you process them!

Jeff - yes lunar vids eat up the storage very quickly especially when I'm using a larger fov. I'm using a strategy lately that sees me capture approx 5min, which equates to about a 40GB file. While that's pretty huge, it's soooo much nicer in processing as I only have to use about 2%, and hardly need to touch the denoise sliders in Register (if at all). Lets me really get the most from the capture, but I only have space on the laptop for about 5-6 captures till all full.

P&C - yeah I tried most of those to get the file back with no luck, I think I might just have conceded its the one that got away on an otherwise very successful night... :)
