Description

An stable seeing provided me with this "Sunny"panorama of Mare Frigoris, Montes Jura and part of Sinus Iridum with nice views on nice craters such as Sharp, Mairan, Bianchini, Foucault, Harpalus and great dominance on the rim of Babbage. Speaking of Babbage (a clear mind!) I wonder if this adaptation of his famous quote will ever be true: "Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine bad data from bad seeing, will the right "sharp image" come out?' .... so far his answer still applies: "I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."

On the "technical side", the image is the resulting mosaic of 5 images, up-right, up-left, center, bottom-right, bottom-left, cutting out the borders to focus on the central part of the mosaic. Each image is the best 1000-1500 stacked images out of around 50000 images captured at around 140 fps.


CS, Guillermo
