AkastroidWhat's changed.
Every release, described by what it does to your images rather than by version number.
First public release
- Deep-sky processing: calibration, star-pattern registration with field rotation, and integration with sigma, Winsorized or linear-fit clipping chosen from your data.
- Planetary processing: frame grading, multi-point alignment across the disc, atmospheric dispersion correction and scale-aware wavelet sharpening.
- Deconvolution using a point spread function measured from your own stars, which declines to run when it would amplify noise rather than recover detail.
- Photometric colour calibration against a catalogue of half a million stars with measured colours.
- Sun and Milky Way support: limb-darkening removal and prominence recovery for solar frames; sky-and-foreground separation for nightscapes.
- Mosaic stitching, narrowband channel composition, and batch processing of a folder of sessions.
- Export to 16-bit TIFF, PNG, JPEG and FITS, with the unprocessed stack available separately.
