Title: A couple of solar system images - Sun WL 26 February and ISS transit 27 February
Post by: Roberto on Feb 28, 2022, 14:44:49
A couple of shots taken over the weekend during daylight hours.  I have been collecting data - at night - and have at least 3 targets to process still from the past clear nights.

Here's the Sun from Saturday morning, AR12954 and 2955 as they moved across the Northern hemisphere:

Best 150 frames out of 2000.  26ms exposures at 12fps.  Telescope was 10" f/20 Maksutov working at 6.3m focal length.

I actually prefer the B&W version:

Then a shot of the which I have not published yet:

The ISS at 6:09AM on Sunday morning...taken with at 94mm refractor working at 700mm FL.  0.7ms at 106fps and composite made of only 20 frames.

I like the B&W image of the sunspots. 6.3m focal length is impressive. ISS is superb, great capture.
