Description

The waxing gibbous moon (96% illuminated) on March 27, 2021. More playing around with using my white light solar rig (minus the Herschel wedge) for lunar imaging. Images were captured through a narrowband solar continuum filter.

Imaged with a Astro-Tech AT60ED, with 2.5x Televue Powermate, Baader Solar Continuum Filter 1¼" (540nm), and ZWO ASI290MM. Imaging train was configured to give ~F/15 (FL=900mm) w/ the 2.5x powermate. Image capture using Firecapture. Stacking in AutoStakkert3 (best 25% of 1000 frames). Processed in Registax (initial wavelet sharpening), Microsoft Image Explorer (panorama generated from 11 sub images), and Topaz Sharpen AI (additional sharpening).
