The Moon on May 16--A Test of the Seestar Optics

 I captured this image of the Moon under good seeing on May 16. Seeing was good during the capture. This image is from a stack of the best 30% of 1800 RAW frames. Stacking in Autostakkert with light wavelets in Registax. I didn't drizzle, but performed a 2x enlargement of the image using the High Fidelity mode of Topaz Gigapixel AI, which in my opinion does a much better job. Here is rhe full image and a crop of the Lunar Apennine Valley area (the valley is in the center). The image was achievable only because of the excellent quality of the APO optics in the Seestar.
