Description

My first mosaic, it was a total joy to take the 2 panels around the heart nebula and watching APP perform seamless mosaics for me to check if I was getting a good result. The ease at which I use this software to make mosaics, makes me want to create mosaics more often for another use besides just creating a bigger FOV... reducing coma in border regions. This is still a work in progress, more data will be added as well as RGB. But it was a lovely session, besides the mosaic performing well, my guiding is now finally consistently stable. I was on average guiding at 0.3" for DEC and 0.4" for RA, all the tinkering is paying off!

– 10x 15 min subs, 2.5 hours total. 2 panels, 5x 15 min per panel.

– Processed using APP, stretched with PI and captured using EKOS/KStars
