It was the evening of January 26 and the Comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) was getting as close to earth as it would be for this historic visit in our cosmic neighbourhood. I did capture this comet back in early January, but it turned out to be very small with my equipment so I wanted to revisit it.
I was also contacted by several of my subscribers or channel visitors wanting me to do a complete step by step tutorial so I thought I’d do just that this time. In this video I will show you how to process comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF) using PixInsight with data from my monochromatic camera and LRGB filters.
Data for this image: 20x60s L, 20x60s R, 20x60s G, 20x60s B.
Total number of exposures 80 with a total integration time of 1 hour and 20 minutes.
Processing: PixInsight with LRGB stars.
Equipment: SkyWatcher EvoStar 80ED Pro (0,85x FR/FF) and ZWO ASI294MM Pro on SkyWatcher HEQ5 Pro with SkyWatcher EvoGuide 50ED and ZWO ASI120MM Mini. ZWO LRGB filter.
