Description

As a contribution to the Celebration of Mankind in Space, as suggested by Van H. McComas, i add this 7-Panel Mosaic of the Waxing Crescent Moon, which has been unpublished on my harddrive for over a year now.

Each of the 7 panels is a stack of the best 900 frames out of 3600, captured with the ZWO ASI 120MM-S without any filter. It was the first time, that i used this cam for imaging ever and i had no expectations but was pleased with the result.

The panels were stitched together in Photoshop, which worked surprisingly well. I then post processed the mosaic in PixInsight and Photoshop.
