10 Panel Mosaic - Orion

10 Panel mosaic of Orion shot remotely from my system in Marathon Remote Imaging Observatory (MaRIO) in Marathon, TX.

I was blown away by the amount of dust in this area. This camera is amazing at picking all of it up. Of course with such a large sensor, the bright stars made things interesting. I had to adjust the positioning of the panels while shooting several time to keep flaring down.

Software used to capture image:

Sequence Generator Pro

PHD2

Software used to edit:

PixInsight

Astro Pixel Processor

Photoshop

Each panel is slightly different on amount of subs. I shot 32 per panel but after culling some, the numbers are different.

Total data gathered:

Main Panel: (269) Subs @ 300secs - 1x1 @ Gain 2200

Camera : QHYCCD QHY128C

Telescope: Stellarvue SVQ86

Mount: AP Mach1GTO

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
