Astrophotography for Beginners


ID : 1813   

« back to classes page
ClassGraphic Join us for a hands-on introduction to the basics of astrophotography using freely available resources. Topics include dark removal, stacking images, and colorizing. We’ll begin by exploring NASA's Observe with NASA (OWN) website and the JS9 online platform. Doug will demonstrate the basic processes of taking raw data and pushing it through a traditional imaging pipeline, including how to animate planetary transits, lunar phases, and sunspots. We’ll then move on to producing color images using data from robotic telescopes, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), and the Jim Webb Space Telescope (JWST).
