11.6% waxing, crescent Moon with a DMK 37AUX273 and AstroDMx Capture for Linux
The 11.6% waxing, crescent Moon was imaged in broad daylight with a DMK 37AUX273 camera fitted with a 850nm IR pass filter attached to a Skywatcher Explorer 130 PDS 130mm, f/5 Newtonian, mounted on a Celestron AVX EQ, GOTO mount. A 5,000 frame SER file was captured using AstroDMx Capture for Linux running on a Fedora machine. The SER file was stacked and wavelet processed in Registax 5.1 running in Wine and the final image was post processed in the Gimp 2.10.
At full resolution, the camera maintained a frame rate of 52 fps, which allows the acquisition of large numbers of frames in a short period of time.
