Perseid meteor shower: This bright meteor August 11 2013
I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.

Why didn't the sun go to college?
(Because it already had a thousand degrees!)

I would like to die on Mars. Just not on impact.

After that founded Mars Picture in Google Map

And using Mars Map from website planetologia.elte.hu
finally can able to show Mars Terra's on the my image.
Planum Boreum - Latin: "the northern plain".
The Acidalia Planitia is named after a corresponding albedo feature on a map by Giovanni Schiaparelli, which was in turn named after the mythological fountain of Acidalia. It has been hypothesized by J.E.Brandenburg that a large natural nuclear reactor in the northern Mare Acidalium underwent catastrophic meltdown.
Tempe Terra is a heavily cratered highland region, contains a large number of small shield volcanoes and other volcanic structures. The name comes from the Vale of Tempe, a valley located south of Mount Olympus and celebrated by the ancient Greeks for its beauty.
Xanthe Terra means "golden-yellow land."
The Valles Marineris rift system is one of the larger canyons of the Solar System.
Noachis Terra - Latin: "Land of Noah"
Terra Meridiani - "Meridian Land". Astronomers had chosen a particular point on Mars as being the location of its prime meridian. Sometimes is using other name "Sinus Meridiani", literally "Meridian Bay".
Arabia Terra was named in 1979 after a corresponding albedo feature on a map by Giovanni Schiaparelli, who named it in turn after the Arabian peninsula.

Photoshop:
Filter Unsharp Mask in Photoshop allows see more clear details
which exist but still not so good visible after Registax (especially it is important for
such small telescope as Celestron 4SE). But if Unsharp is too aggressive some
artifact appears. So, first I decreased a little bit brightness to make
possibility use aggressive Unsharp Mask. After that used Unsharp Mask which was
still have some small artifacts. And smooth these artifacts with filter Noise
Median radius 3. Finally I added a little bit magenta.

Saturn April 21, 2011. Weather was not good - it was windy and partially cloudy. To suppress vibration I used Celestron Vibration Suppression Pads. To made better focus - used Bahtinov focus mask.

RegiStax 6 - Astrophotography Saturn - Testing new version v6
RegiStax 6 release 2 April 2011
Just downloaded the new version and tested it.
Installation was very simple and no problem for Vista. Interface is simpler and more intuitive.
I had some problem with multi alignment in version 5. In RegiStax 6 it works as magic -- no issue. New function - Linked Wavelet Layers -- is great! Speed fantastic. This is major improvements which allow make more experimental settings and find best parameters for final image.
Thanks for RegiStax all people who created, develop and support it! It's amazing free product!
For Saturn observation I used Celestron 4Se telescope, Barlow 2x, NexImage.
Hope it video helps and gives you ideas what you can do with Registax.

Total Lunar Eclipse December 21, 2010 Winter Solstice
Total Lunar Eclipse December 21, 2010
New York, NY Celestron 4SE telescope. All exposures were taken with Canon 40D. Backyard astronomy and digital astrophotography. Weather in New Your during the eclipse time was fantastic, but a little bit cold.
The eclipse of December 21 2010 Tuesday morning was the first total lunar eclipse to occur on the day of the Northern Winter Solstice - the shortest day and longest night of the year (Southern Summer Solstice) since 1638 (first time in 372 years), and only the second in the Common Era. That will not happen again until 2094.
The eclipse was the first total lunar eclipse in almost three years, since the February 2008 total lunar eclipse. It is the second of two lunar eclipses in 2010.
Partial eclipse begins 1:33am EST
Total eclipse begins 2:41am EST
Middle of eclipse 3:17am EST
Total eclipse ends 3:53am EST
Partial eclipse ends 5:01am EST
