Description

Spring time begins - it's time to do astrophotography
It is noteworthy that I managed to catch such an interesting event - the arrival of Gunnymede on a leap day on February 29.
The shooting was quite difficult, the planet had to be found in a bright sky, besides, the entire horizon was covered with clouds.

Shooting parameters:
29.02.2024 17:47:20 - 18:38: 52 local time, 37 videos for 80 seconds.
LX200 MadMax mount. Meade ACF 16" f/10 Tube Automated Focuser myFP2 + Baader ir-cut + Barlow overclocking 1.39x + automated eADC + playerOne imx585.
100fps 512x512, 16raw, 10ms shutter speed, gain 240-270 [172, 0, 651], ( filling gist. 50%).
Adding 20% of 8000 frames in AS!4, PixInsight, 100%. (the pixel scale of the original is ~0.105”/pixel).
