Great video, Waldo. With Saturn so low in your sky, that was a great image. - Patrick -

@AstroForumSpace 21 день назад

Thanks so much Patrick! It's "Wido" by the way :-). You can probably do a lot better with that C11 in the heavenly backyard!

@HeavenlyBackyardAstronomy 21 день назад

@@AstroForumSpace Darn spell checker. The Celestron 11 EDGE HD is sitting and waiting for these pesky clouds to get out of here. It's been about a month now since I uncovered it. I might luck out in about 3 days. Yes, at my latitude of 32N, Saturn will be about a good 20 degrees higher in the sky than what you are able to view. Clear skies, WIDO

Nice video. Your work on production quality is very apparent. Good job, and great content!

@XtraaMints 20 дней назад

Just got the Seestar and Saturn was the first object I pointed it at, very small through it but you can see the rings. Amazing to see

@martynh5410 20 дней назад

Saturn gets up to almost 50 degrees for me in Southern California. Your Saturn image looks very good, especially considering your latitude and weather!!

@AstroForumSpace 20 дней назад

Tx Martyn! I waited until midnight and took 18000 frames, selected the best 25%, stacked and used a new beta wavesharp tool.

@martynh5410 20 дней назад

@@AstroForumSpace wow 25% of 18,000 frames! I don’t think I ever captured more than 3,000 frames on any planet but I had USB2 at that time. With that many frames you could try stacking just the best 10% and compare results.

Good job and thank you.

What is your workout and diet plan? You have gotten into great shape when looking at your older videos!

Another awesome video, thanks for posting! What did you use to animate the stars?

@mikehardy8247 17 дней назад

I recently purchased a Sky-Watcher 250mm Dobsonian with SynScan capability, so it has goto and tracking capabilities. I've been spending lots of time viewing Saturn. Also photographing and videographing with my phone. I have an Asi178 planetary/guide camera. I can't quite get it to focus. The sensor needs to get closer to the diagonal mirror (and thus the primary mirror). I'm going to try a shorter 1.25 to 2 inch adapter. I can see 5 moons in my bortle 9 yard. Thanks!

@jesuschrist2284 20 дней назад

No atmospheric dispersal control thing?

@craiglowery4427 18 дней назад

Great video. Will you be explaining what wavelet sharpening software you use?

@AstroForumSpace 15 дней назад

Wavesharp (beta) + registax

@amp2amp800 11 дней назад

With planetary seeing is everything.... then aperture, by which I really mean seeing... since seeing affects larger apertures disproportionately. Helaas, we live at the bottom of a well Wido. Still a nice video though! Thanks!

@christophdunkel1562 17 дней назад

Question. I have a similar setup with C11 and ASI585MC but no guide scope. And I fail all times with plate solve with any of the plate solvers recommended in Nina. Astap needs ages and can only resolve it very occasional. Any ideas?

@psuaero100 20 дней назад

Do you care about the back focus distance? I also have an Edge8 and I'm trying to decide if it's worth working out the 133.5mm distance or just getting it in the ballpark. I'm going to run a 2x Televue and then a ZWO EFW and finish with either a 178MM or my 294MM.

@taras3702 18 дней назад

Back focus is if no concern while using planetary cameras to image planets. I have an 8-inch EdgeHD SCT and never needed to take this into account, but the effective focal ratio is another story. You want to use an effective F/ratio about five times that of the pixel size in microns for best resolution and signal to noise ratio. Cooking is not needed.

@Tomhall-zd9ht 18 дней назад

I'm a little puzzled about your focus. I have a Edge 9.25 but I can't get focus with my asi678 directly behind the scope, without a reducer/flattener. I had to add a couple of extension tube to get focus.

@AstroForumSpace 15 дней назад

I can get focus with the Edge HD 800 without adding extension tubes.

@mikehardy8247 17 дней назад

Do you use Asistudio as an interface between the zwo asi678 camera and laptop?

@AstroForumSpace 15 дней назад

No, I use sharpcap as explained in the video.
