4 day old moon mosaic

[TheThing]

From last night. Only managed to get part of it imaged before cloud swept in. Wasn't my night, as I moved to Saturn, but that clouded over as well!

Mosaic of 3 panes each of 100 frames, stacked by Autosuite and stitched together by ICE.

Taken with a Meade LPi thru a 6", F5 Soligor newt.

Very nice, a shame about the clouds. What is autosuite? Haven't heard of that one.

Autosuite is the software that Meade supply with their LPi and DSi webcams (and is free to download from their website).

Basically, it has a planetarium feature, but more importantly provides the drivers for capturing images thru the webcams and also automatically stacks the frames for you into a final image.

You managed more than me. Autosuite is the software for Meade telescopes, the imaging part of the suite is Envisage which is used bt the Meade DSI and LPI cameras.
