Description

Second light with new planetary imaging setup, replacing the 2x Powermate / ZWO ADC / ASI290MC with a Gutekunst Compact ADC and ASI678MC. Tiny 2 micron pixels yield 6 pixels per Airy disk in an f/10 system, so pretty well sampled for planetary without a barlow. Using a new processing workflow with linear wavelets in Registax instead of deconvolution, seems to produce pretty good results.
Imaged from Mount Charleston, NV (8000' MSL elevation) on an exceptionally (rare!) calm night.
3 min capture at 172 fps, 70% stack.
