My Astrophotography setup

Mead 5" Reflector

Compaq N600c Laptop running Windows XP

Coulter Optical Odessy 8 telescope

Meade Lunar Planetary Imager (LPI)

My son and I have played with the AstroStack program to help improve some of these picture.  The program seems to be temperamental at best sometimes.  Sometimes the raw images are much better than the stacked ones.

Moon

This image is the result of 10 stacked images. Both pictures above are without the barlow.

Both of these are with the barlow.

Jupiter

With the barlow and 1 moon visable.
