Data source: Backyard
First try at imaging interstellar dust. The data was acquired in my suburban backyard with 19.60 mag/arc-sec^2 skies. Darker skies would benefit this kind of object. I had to use fairly heavy handed noise reduction in PI to stretch the dust appropriately. I'll add more data next year!

If this user has been harassing you, and you shadow-ban them, all their activities on your content will be invisible to everyone except themselves.
They will not know that they have been shadow-banned, and the goal is that eventually they will get bored while having caused no harm, since nobody saw what they posted.
You will remove your shadow-ban on this user, and their comments, messages, etc, will appear again on your content.
Such limitation improves the website as a whole by discouraging people from creating fake accounts to like their own content. Thank you for understanding!
