A puzzled visual astronomer
Being a predominantly visual and EAA astronomer. (Well actually a predominantly armchair astronomer given the perpetual state of my skies!)
I’m always amazed by the hours and hours of integration time for all the wonderful images posted.
Probably a very silly question but are all these hours with the exact same setup?
Ie exactly the same location and optical train? Or can you integrate data from different scopes/cameras and locations? And if so, how?
I save all my sharpcap fits files for my EAA sessions, so have lots of short exposure data for many targets using different optical trains and occasionally different locations. It would be a fun exercise to put it all together if possible. Although I have zero Astro post processing experience outside of sharpcap and some planetary using AS3 and Registax.
Cheers
