Description

I nearly got the whole moon in the frame, this was a composition of 9 frames each approximately 1000 frames.

Shot at 2704x1536 at 30fps with a total of 9974 frames.

1.PIPP for pre-alignment(per video clip)

2.Autostakkert2 for stacking

3.Registax6 : Wavelet Processing

4.PTGui used for aligning images and creating Pano.

5.Photoshop for sharpening output and cleanups.

Mounted the modified camera and the 2.25x Baader Barlow on the Celestron 80mm Guidescope.

Would like try a panorama with the main telescope next

This was only a proof of concept
