119 Panel Mosaic

The camera used was the ASI120MM with the Astronomik 742nm IR Pass filter -10-03-14.

It was shot over a period of 3.5 hours using 2500 frames per AVI. Each AVI had 30% of frames stacked in Autostakkert, before wavelets were applied in Registax v5.1. The stacking of the 119 videos took 40 hours over three days, with several more hours spent assembling the panels into the complete picture.

The picture below is a small scale version.
The fullsize image is 8500 x 10500 pixels in size ( 7MB ), and can be seen by clicking the picture below. This will open a new window using the Zoom.it website to create an interactive picture in which you can zoom in or out of the various details.

Distance: 399760Km, Phase: 65.4°, Lunation: 9.46 days, Illumination: 70.8%

Here's a screen capture of all the AVI's in the folder. Processing seemed never ending!
