Sep 22, 2021 · Exploring Advanced Features in Star Tools - posted in Beginning Deep Sky Imaging: I only own OSC cameras (ASI183MC Pro and ASI017MC Pro). When imaging emission nebulae I use a L-enhance and often another set of lights with a UB-IR filter. I stack in APP, often extracting Ha and Oiii as separate stacks. With RGB I split the channels and then combine all the separate channels using the APP ...

I am using the StarXterminator plugin and it works really well. You can do all the noise reduction in the linear stage, or do some of the noise reduction before and some after.

Aug 17, 2023 · nox star removal software - posted in Astronomy Software & Computers: For anyone who uses StarNet to remove stars from astrophotographs, you may be interested to try out a similar tool that I have developed, called nox. The essential difference between StarNet and nox (besides the use of a slightly different neural network architecture) is that nox was trained on a synthetic dataset with ...

Aug 17, 2021 · Good Tutorials for using Star Tools - posted in Beginning Deep Sky Imaging: Hello everyone! Let me start by saying, while I work on computers for a living, maintain SQL databases and write software code, I suck at post processing images. Ive never been good with Photoshop. I tried PI for several weeks and couldnt even get past stacking and creating masters. I like the simplicity of APP and ...

May 19, 2023 · A possibly better way to use this tool on first blush, is to first remove the stars from the final tiff image, apply AstroSharp, and then put back the stars. This eliminates the problem of small stars becoming blocky due to the sharpening, and from being shifted ever so slightly to the left, due I assume to the way the processing algorithm works.
