The 6.3 Days Old Moon

Acquisition type: Lucky imaging

Hello Everybody,

Hope you have been keeping well.

A couple of problems tied me up and kept me away from AstroBin for a while. I have certainly been missing a heap of brilliant images. The display hinge of my laptop broke, still using it but closing the display would be suicide. Well, better than a broken arm -- or heart.

Also, the sky was closed for three weeks, but the official end of the rainy season is near. Last night, the Moon showed up between clouds while seeing was surprisingly good. The Moon in Leo was 52° to 44° up during the session. With this upload go the image taken with a Neptune-M (IMX178) camera, a 7-pane mosaic. Rev B has the huge 10K drizzled version just for comparison. Usually, I do not drizzle IMX178 images as they are natively 4K wide but a fast PC seduces and it is the machine that is working.

Please see my next upload of images taken with the ASI290MM (IMX290).

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.
