Processed with Pipp, python, autostakkert, and registax.
Huge thanks to u/J3RRYLIKESCHEESE for his help about his iss captures. I don’t have an ISS time in the next few weeks but I saw the CSS had a few nights where it would be visible. I used sky track on my laptop connect to the mount and camera and it tracked wonderfully!! I think I will purchase a subscription I was hesitant at first but it’s been a great tool.
At first I overexposed as I was nervous I wouldn’t find it, but I lowered to around 1.5 ms with high gain and out of the 1700 frames captured in 2 minutes 1182 of them had the css detected in them.
I separated the captures into 12 folders through a python script and stacked each folder of roughly 100 frames to produce this animation!
