Equipment Details:

Celestron 9.25 telescope with a Celestron AVX mount and a Zwo ASI585 camera

Post-processing Details:

This is a video that was put into PIPP which is a program for the pre-processing of planetary images before stacking them. The next process is AutoStakkert it is lucky imaging software used to automatically analyze, align, and stack images of the Sun, Moon and Planets. When you are done with that you take your single image and put it into Registax, its purpose is to produce and enhanced your image with wavlets. I take the final image and place it in lightroom to denoise it.

Image Details:

I was happy with the results of my image of Saturn at opposition. Even though the clouds kept coming and going I finally was able to get a three minute video to produce an image.
