Description

Time-lapse animation created from 268 recordings between 13:10 and 14:41UT on March 11th 2023. Each recording was 15 seconds long with a framerate of 80fps (1200 frames) and 5 seconds delay between each recording.

The recordings where obtained using a Coronado SolarMax 60mm/BF15 w/Beloptik ITF, stopped down to 50mm, Baader 35nm H-Alpha and ZWO ASI 178mm. Everything was mounted on a SkyWatcher SolarQuest Alt-Az mount.

The best 200 frames from each recording was stacked in AutoStakkert!3 before they were aligned, sharpened and contrast-stretched in ImPPG.

The final animation was created in PIPP at 20fps effectively compressing the 1 hours 31 minutes of duration down to just 13 seconds.
