The first test images made with a PlaneWave 43cm F/6,8 astrograph.
The Horsehead, M82,The Rosettenebula and M33.
It's only a preview of what you can expect with the biggest scope which Roboscope has to offer at the moment.
There are no darks,bias and flats made because in the very near future the camera will be replaced by a highly sensitive Kepler FLI CMOS camera.
To make it even more difficult to process is that during the image aquisition frost had settled on the sensor.
So not very ideal for image processing but it will give you an idea how powerful the scope will be.
The length of the individual subs are only 300 seconds.
M82 LHaRGB = 1230:350:280:280:320 minutes. (The luminance is in fact a pseudo luminance combined of all the subs together.)
NGC2244 Ha = 540 minutes
IC434 HaRGB = 150:60:160:120 minutes
M33 RGB = 60:60:60 minutes.

Beautiful work Mike .....The detail is amazing....cant wait for the new Camera to go on it

Mike,
I too have that data and marvel at how you process it so well. The best comparison I can make is that both you and Peter can turn data into something for which I would need to have at least double the integration time.
Precision processing as if done with a fine brush and delicate touch. Mine more closely resemble something done with a brush used to apply wallpaper paste, badly!
Please keep them coming.
Cheers
Ray
