Imaged with a ZWO ASI2600MM Pro camera, through an 8-inch Teleskop-Service RC reflector. This camera has a large APS-C 26 megapixel sensor, with a frame rate of only 3.5 fps.
This image is the result of stacking the sharpest 15 frames out of 1000 captured, processed through Autostakkert. Further processing with Affinity Photo.
The entire disk is visible, with the minor Mare Marginis, Smythii and Australe well displayed on the eastern limb, because of libration.
