NGC 5033

Finally a clear night on the new moon! It's been 6 months. Traveled to Mt Pinos, but still too much snow up there (8,300') so went down a bit to Chuchupate, (5,600'), bortle 4. A few astronomers showed up over my 3 night stay...so very good to see astro friends again. Used to be on average there were 8 visual and 2 imagers, but now 8 imagers and 2 visual! Got to see the SeeStar live stacking...impressive.

Seeing was not particularly great these nights, twinkle twinkling stars. SQL between 20.9 and 21.10; guiding around 0.7. If you browse around at full resolution some really interesting galaxies are to be found. -john

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.
