NGC1893/IC410 (Askar 103APO first light)

This is the first light for my Askar 103APO and there are some good and some bad things going on here. Overall, I'm pleased with the final image but there is an issue I am experiencing with star shape. I've run several tests since this was taken and after talking with Askar this issue might only be fixed by sending the scope back to the manufacture. This has become quite a roadblock as the cost of shipping would be around $1350 USD (I have no idea why it's this much. I could literally buy a plane ticket to China with it in a suitcase as a checked bag for slightly less). In the meantime, I have found that I can process most (not all) of the issue out of the image using Blur X in Pix and to be honest I'm OK with the results. The weather here has been doo doo so unfortunatly this first light was a short one but I'm anxious to see how it does with some longer integration times. See Rev. B for the original before trying to fix the stars.

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.
