PixInsight for Mere Mortals: A Fast Approach for Processing | 2024-09-15

The astrophotography community is diverse, having people from all levels from both an expertise and equipment point of view. As "mere mortals," not all of us are lucky enough to have high-end Planewaves or a Takahashis deployed over fully-automated Bortle-1-sky observatories (no pun intended). However, is our data still worthwhile? Can I still save the night? Join our own Jaime Zapata Suarez on this talk and discover if he can extract any value from his own "bad" data acquired while taming a Hyperstar. While doing this, he´ll also show an accelerated PixInsight processing workflow that may help beginners and intermediates to have a roadmap on different, sometimes hidden, but easy-to-use tools that have appeared on the environment over time.
Jaime Zapata Suarez is a software and data engineer by day, providing service for US-based companies from his home-office. Amateur astrophotographer by night, Jaime is motivated by his grandfather who used to stargaze with him when he was a child. Located at 9,000 feet altitude, and almost ay the equator, Jaime has been showing the hidden jewels of the sky to his community in an effort that is only possible when the spirits of the Andes, the snow-capped volcanoes, trap the dense clouds coming from the Amazon.
