See, now, this is what I don't "get"--why sit there for long minutes, waiting for an image of, say, M31 to form, when I can go outside and look at it immediately?
You make sitting there waiting for the image to form sound like a privilege; IMO it's not.
I don't
want to spend hours processing images in order to get an APOD, I don't
care about the hours it took to do that--that's why I go to their website, so they can give me the already-processed pix.
And, how do people who are looking through the same telescope at the same object during the same time frame end up with "different" pictures that can be "compared"?
I'm glad you're enjoying yourself, however.
