Astrophotography Image Processing Workflows

Learn how to automate complex astrophotography imaging workflows using the Wolfram Language's powerful image processing and statistical data manipulation capabilities. This 29-minute video demonstrates the step-by-step process of transforming raw astronomical exposures into stunning final images. Follow along as the speaker guides you through calibrating, aligning, stacking, de-noising, and stretching image sequences for each color channel. Discover techniques for combining multiple color channels to create breathtaking composite images. Explore a real-world example featuring galaxy images captured in May 2023 from a light-polluted location in Urbana, Illinois, including a remarkable image of M101 showcasing the recently discovered supernova SN 2023ixf.
