Description

This was my first try at a mosaic. Clouds and weather made it pretty difficult. Bad gradients from the moon didn't help either. I learned a lot, and it made mosaics less intimidating to me, but I still would rather just a larger FOV. Anyway, I reprocessed this probably a dozen different times. The data wasn't that great, and I wasn't ever really happy with it. It's still not the best, but I spent enough nights gathering data I wanted something to show for it. I wasn't exactly sure how to put in my aquisition details. I just put total time. Divide it by 4 to get the approximate per panel time.
