Centaurus A CHI-1 reprocess using Blur Xterminator
A reprocess of data taken between 03-04-2020 and 01-01-2022. The linear luminance frame was processed using the new Blur Xterminator plug-in for PixInsight by Russell Croman. This applies a deconvolution process that enhances detail and sharpens/shrinks stars.
L: 19 x 600s, R: 20 x 600s, G: 20 x 600s, B: 21 x 600s.
