About this image

This is the first image I have captured using the N.I.N.A. software. This software looks to revolutionise my data capture process. Previously, I have been using Nebulosity for data capture and have been operating almost entirely manually for plate-solving, image alignment and focusing. Now N.I.N.A. will do most things automatically. I recommend it.
