Video of Imaging M31, Andromeda Galaxy, in Full-Frame camera and infrared filter. 60 second exposures.

Telescope is setup to track Saturn. It takes a series of images every 5 minutes as the Moon passes by Saturn.

Set up the guide scope to keep Saturn in the field of view. Then captured 100,000 frames. I only plan to stack 10,000 frames to get a clean image.

Demonstration of postprocessing the stacked result from C20 North American Nebula in Siril Software. The result from the last video is normalized, deconvolved, and stretched in Siril and GIMP.

The comet that everyone has been talking about finally moved high enough in the evening sky for me to capture it in my small telescope.

Demonstration preprocess the light frames from C20 North American Nebula in Siril Software. The light frames are calibrated, using the master flat and dark frames from the last video. After calibration, they are aligned and stacked (averaged) into a final image to further process using other image processing techniques.

Demonstration of sorting images and rejecting defective ones. Preprocess calibration frames used in remaining preprocessing.

Automated capture of M11, V447 Scuti, IC5070, IC1318, C20, and C33 deep sky objects. Captured 100 images each with dithering every 5 images.

Setting up and aligning my C8 for M101. I will be gathering specific photons from the galaxy that are generated by the deionization of Hydrogen gas in the universe.

This is a video of testing the filter wheel on M57. Nebula imaged in normal visual band (IR-UV Cutoff filter), IR, Sulfur II, Hydrogen Alpha, and Oxygen III).

After modifying the controller board in my Celestron CPC 800, the images are coming in stable with no loss of tracking.

This video shows the results of the CPC Mount Controller PCBA upgrade in the last video. Namely, reducing resistor values from 5.1K to 1.0K in-line with the data communication. Issue seems to be fixed.
