Sergey's Astrophotography

The Moon and Montes Apenninus

“A sharp close-up of the Apennine Mountains, the Moon's most prominent mountain range, with a large crater nearby.”

The Apennine Mountains (Montes Apenninus), a roughly 600-kilometer arc marking part of the rim of the Imbrium impact basin, cast dramatic shadows across this capture, with a prominent crater visible at the range’s edge.

Captured as a single video and stacked in AutoStakkert!3, then processed in PixInsight.
