Description

This is my first attempt at comet integration by having separate stacks for stars only and the comet only.  It took several nights of trial and error to get the results I liked.  One snag I ran into was it took 7 hours for StarXTerminator to remove the stars from 39 light frames!  (Anybody else run into this issue?)  Difficulties aside,  I mostly followed the excellent tutorial provided by the "View Into Space" YouTube channel.  Although I tried some other methods, this one worked for me.  Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pnMkzkn5Xw
