The Moon and Copernicus
“A dramatic close-up of Copernicus, one of the Moon's most prominent rayed craters, near the terminator.”
Copernicus, a roughly 93-kilometer crater with a complex terraced rim and central peaks, sits in deep shadow near the terminator in this capture, its full depth thrown into relief by the low sun angle.
Captured as a single video and stacked in AutoStakkert!3, then processed in PixInsight.
