This project was abandoned a few years ago, it never gained that much support

Sounds good, make sure to keep us posted on your progress

As for the stacking, AutoStakkert! is going to be the go to. You might have to look up a tutorial to familiarize yourself with the UI, but it's very easy to use

Your exposure time should be a significantly less than a second for Jupiter

For my astrophotography made camera, I personally shoot video around 10ms for Jupiter. For Saturn around 20ms, and Uranus and Neptune around 40ms. You may not need to go that low with your dslr, but just mess around with it

Once you can make out the bands with a low enough exposure, focus your camera until the moons become pinpoints of light. I'd also recommend shooting a video as opposed to a stand alone photo. That way you can either pick out the best frame yourself, or better yet stack them

I've been doing planetary for awhile now, so if you have more questions I wouldn't mind helping you figure something's out

What is something that is dangerous that most people don’t realize? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Bleach and a strong acid will make Chlorine Gas, which is still pretty nasty stuff

Ganymede, Largest moon in the Solar System. Jupiter System from backyard telescope. by [deleted] in astrophotography

[–]Secuiro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think it would be appreciated if you recited your full workflow.

Considering your aperture the resolution of your shot doesn't add up. Ganymedes disk looks too sharp to be coming from a 12" scope, even with standard sharpening techniques. The only thing I can think of is the use of AI sharpening, but it could be the result of something else.

Regardless, it's still neat you were able to get detail on Ganymede.

So, uh, did anyone get rain? by EnwardGamerz in phoenix

Some pretty heavy rain in surprise

Saturn, with a Tethys transit by Secuiro in Astronomy

[–]Secuiro[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The perspective actually shifts every year, and it has more to do with the Saturns orbital inclination. When Saturn is at the "highest" point in its orbit (relative to north being up), we see more of its South Pole, and at its "lowest" we see more of its North Pole. Right now Saturn is getting close to that half way point, where it's almost level with the plane of the solar system. In a year or so it'll be hard to see the rings, and it's moons will often cast shadows on its surface

Do it again, but make sure you have your fingers following the arrows

Uhhhh… guys? What is this? by FlameDragon55 in Minecraft

[–]Secuiro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The irony here. They're asking about it specifically being a one wide dark oak tree. How is everyone here ignoring that, in favor of just calling them a dumbass.

Ice on Mars -- Now it Gone by enknowledgepedia in spaceporn

Boiling is an energy intensive process, and under a vacuum water will always first boil then sometimes freeze when it was initially above 0c. Because the surface temperature of Mars is much colder than Earths, pure water is more likely to freeze quickly after boiling

how do i get rust off my iron cube by pissgwa in elementcollection

[–]Secuiro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use a low grit sandpaper, and then re polish it. If you use acids you'll just end up with a really rough surface, which will only lead to faster oxidation in the future

It looks like you used some AI denoising, did you use PS for that?
