Actually it is not SOME noise. You have a fair bit of noise, in the back ground and around the fringe of the galaxy too.
Since you are using short subs it would not hurt to either use darks or increase the number of subs or both, as it is clear to me if not a few others that as soon as you stretch the data the noise becomes apparent. This is where doing mega data as you quite like to belittle me over (like there is something wrong in doing that) comes into play. I am sure I don't need to inform you of signal to noise ratio. If you had sufficient subs to suppress the noise you could stretch without noise becoming apparent. It is a simple thing really and each object will demand different amounts of data collection to achieve that goal.
Surely the object of doing all this data collection is to produce noise free images, just like you were looking out of a portal at an object??
I am not sure the snide remark was warranted though.
