Beta Cygni (Albireo)

Acquisition type: Lucky imaging

I made this only as a test for shorter exposures. But i think the result is nice, so i thought i'll share it. The weather is so incredible bad the last weeks that i can not go on at the moment, so i revisit older data like this test. There is no real conclusion in the test. The ASI294MC Pro can be used for shorter exposures - this is not a big surprise :-)

Albireo was the first double star i ever imaged back in 2017. As a reminiscence i made version b - nearly no processing and a big crop to compare the results. The ability to show the separation of the stars is not very impressive here - 35 arcseconds is a lot in our business :-)

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.
