It's not clean at all. Thousands of different styles, no single convention on function-naming, etc. Want a clean kernel, go look at the BSDs.

You are correct, there's also a flaw on CSP not limiting all the ways you can download a resource. And at this time, it's still not fixed. We'll publish an advisory soon.

IANAL but I saw some comments from one, apparently in USA you have to consistently do unwanted approaches for a long time to be considered sexual harassment.

CCDs generate lots of heat. Maybe you are thinking about CMOS sensors, much more efficient, but even cmos sensors overheat in many cameras.
224.
by aortega 10y ago
Most CMOS sensors are much more sensitive in the red/infrared spectrum, that's why all cameras have a IR cut-out filter. This filter is removed in astrophotography cameras (you want all the light you can get) giving aprox. 50% mor

Peltier cooling or heating does require a fan. The peltier cell only moves heat from on side to the other side. Then, you still have to remove the heat somehow (heat doesn't simply dissapear) that's why most peltier setups have fa

I answered in other thread but my Atik 460 cooled ccd fan doesn't introduce any vibrations. It's a high quality fan, and it's hard for a 5g fan to introduce vibrations in a 100kg+ mount+telescope setup.

by aortega 10y ago
Good question. I have a peltier cooled ccd (atik 460) and the fan stays on during the entire exposure, but it doesn't affect the final picture at all, touching the camera I can't feel any vibration, but can hear the fan. Quality i

Photo stacking software is free. A very good robot mount plus telescope can be had for 800 us$ (Nexstar 6SE)

Which galaxies? Andromeda maybe. I'm talking of a city or suburban environment. Of course if you go really far into the forest, you can see a galaxy. But it's a hassle, how many times a year you can do that?

It's mostly automated.

But you also need another camera and probably another mount too. The scope is actually the cheapest component in a astrophotography setup. Probably the 80% of the cost is the mount+the camera.

I just went straight to the cooled CCD/C11/hyperstar and don't repent. I would like a better mount though, but my EQ6 is just fine. Now I actually need a smaller scope :)

I have a big-ass telescope and it's the main reason I can see stuff in light pollution. The trick, that I'm sure you know, is to pickup a bucket-load of light, filter the pollution light and let pass the star light. They are diffe

Star clusters are just a lot of point-like stars, and nebulas are really faint, if visible at all in the city. Though globular clusters are cool.

Any Meade, celestron or skywatcher robotic mount can connect to a computer using a serial RS232 interface. I recommend a Skywatcher mount, because those mounts can be completely controlled by software and there is a very good opensource pro
