Moon 22 Nov 2015 - Narrowband

This is a narrowband image of the moon. Ha was mapped to Red, SII mapped to Green, and OIII mapped to the Blue channel to create a false colour image.

 

I am getting desperate with all the cloud over head, and have resorted to shooting the moon. Fortunately this guy doesn’t require long exposures and I could grab subs between the clouds. Ten subs of 0.01 seconds were used for each filter, then stacked in CCDStack. The three resulting images where combined into a false colour image and touched up in Photoshop.

 

Instrument used: 10" RCOS

Camera: SBIG STL 11000

Location: Melbourne, Australia
