The Moon at the Age of 17 Days

Acquisition type: Lucky imaging

A mosaic of six panels at FL=750mm, each a stack of 600 (10%) frames in raw-8, 1.5x drizzled, exposure time 1ms at gain 85 and 138fps (10-bit ADC). The alternative version is more intensively color saturated (out of curiosity). All other images in the revision are taken at FL=1500mm with an IR742nm pass filter in raw-8 and then converted to gray scale since the images are in NIR anyway. Recording in raw-8 is about twice as fast than a mono-8. The frame rate can also be increased by selecting High Speed mode (10-bit ADC) in the capture software, but at the expense of higher readout noise and lower dynamic range, however, due to the short exposure times around 6ms the difference to the 12-bit ADC is optically subtle. "Tsuki (月)" is the Japanese word for "Moon" additionally meaning "Month". Also, "Monday" contains the character for the Moon (月曜日).

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.
