Mars.

 

Mars was at its closest position to Earth tonight. This image took me HOURS to prepare for, including several test nights earlier this week, collimation of my scope's optics and learning new software processes. Quite happy with this result, some lovely surface detail here!

Broke out an old telescope I've had for years (Meade DSX-90) and thought I'd try lucky imaging on my mount. Took a video of about 4000 frames, and narrowed down the stacking to the top 500...

Mi primera imágen del 2020: El cráter Copérmico (Izq) tiene 93 Km de diámetro y el cráter Eratóstenes (Centro) es un cráter de impacto lunar relativamente profundo que se encuentra en el límite entre las regiones del Mare Imbrium y del Sinus Aestuum. Se halla en el límite occidental de la cordillera de los Montes Apenninus (Derecha) y tiene un diámetro de 59 Km.

This is the first planetary record I've done this year. The seeing was not favorable in the region where I live (unfortunately), but the training is worth it. In 2021, the closest approximation between Saturn and Earth will take place in August.

The lighting over Mare Tranquillitatis in this image is a very good representation of how the area would have looked as Armstrong and Aldrin were on final approach for their landing on 1969-07-20 2018 UT. The altitude of the Sun over this region would have matched what it was for the crew of Apollo 11 at that time, to within a degree or so. This image was taken 618 lunar months after the first successful landing of humans on the Moon. The craters named after Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins are just resolved in this image.

 

This is a stack of the best 400 frames from a 1500 frame AVI shot with a Point Grey Flea3 color camera through a Celestron Edge HD 925 at f/10 (no Barlow lens). Stacking was done in AutoStakkert!3, with further processing in PixInsight (mostly wavelets) and PS CS 5.1.

The seeing was good and the No. 15 yellow filter seemed to work well for improving contrast. Rupes Altai is easily seen. It is usually washed out in later phases.

Getting better data from the new camera inspired me to put some more effort into my Pixinsight planetary workflow. I'm very pleased with my results.

Description

 

2 panel mosaic, 200/5000 total frames

This is my first attempt at a Hydrogen Alpha image of the sun, showing Active Region (AR) 2674 and 2679 (both to the left) and AR 2677 and 2678 (to the right). The image was taken using a QHY5-290C camera attached to a Lunt 50 THA solar scope. It is the result of 400 frames, stacked in Autostakkert 3 and processed using Registax6.

Looping prominence 56% of 3000 frames stacked, the smaller prominence was 75% of of 3000 frames stacked

 

All stacking was done in Autostakkert! 2, images duplicated and then one set tweaked to bring out surface features, the other to bring out the prominences using Lightroom. Then a layer mask was used in Photoshop CS2 to combine the layers

Captured on November 9th, 2020 in Kaunas, Lithuania using Canon EOS R and Skywatcher Explorer 150PDS with Meade 3X Barlow. I've captured 1 minute videos for each planet, selected 20% of clearest frames from the clearest videos and stacked using AutoStakkert and processed in Registax.

North is up.

 

Description:

70Km / 42Mi diameter. Young circular formation forming an interesting couple with Aliacensis (SE). Very steep and tormented slopes supporting Blanchinus to the North, Aliacensis to the South-East and Regiomontanus to the West. Walls in very raised tiers supporting the craterlet Werner D to the North. Flat floor but tormented alongside the South wall. Slightly off-centered mountain.

 

Name origin:

Moon Mosaic of 70 frames from AVIs

Monochrome with HA filter

Lunation 8.61 days

 

Seeing was quite good.

I think details about 1km wide are visible.

(e.g. The Vallis Alpes rille is just barely showing and it's 700m wide)

The image scale is .37 arcsec/pixel which works out to about 660m/pixel linear distance on the moon's surface. (the moon was about 372,000km from my location according to SNP7.)

Vlacq Crater – diameter is 89 km and it is located in the southeast region of the moon, named after Adriaan Vlocq a Dutch book publisher and author of mathematical tables (1600-1667). The rim is eroded, the interior largely flat but does have a central mountain.

Tech Specs: ZWO ASI290MC camera and Meade 12” LX90 telescope mounted on a Celestron CGEM-DX mount. Software used included Sharpcap v2.9 and AutoStakkert! Alpha Version 2.3.0.21. Photographed on February 2, 2017 from Weatherly, Pennsylvania.
