Platesolving finding >1000 sources when there clearly isn't? Please help!

#1

Post by gravshark »

Hi all!

I have a Nexstar 8SE and it came with the standard Celestron altaz for it. Recently was gifted a Skywatcher EQ6R Pro so I'm learning the ropes. I got polar alignment working through Sharpcap excellently no issues. However, when attempting to go from the guide scope (I got the orion SSAG autoguiding kit for my birthday as well recently) to the main tube + camera to platesolve, I can't get platesolving to work correctly. I will post everything I can gather here based on information I found in other posts for previously similar issues. I think part of the problem is its finding what it thinks are hundreds of sources/stars when there very clearly is not in the frame I see in Sharpcap.

Image

This image is what I see in SharpCap. Its a 1600ms exposure and 418gain, 56frames stacked just fine in livestacking. Similar results of single frames since I didn't let the stack run for too long.

If it helps, here's the darks I had Sharpcap put together for the same exact settings as the above frame:

Image

Additionally here's the log file generated during the procedure. Note that it says it finds 800+ sources in the image, but there clearly is not that many stars in the image so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Its likely I AM doing something wrong and I completely accept that since I'm new to the EQ world but I would love a nudge in the right direction so I can get started using my new gear :)

Re: Platesolving finding >1000 sources when there clearly isn't? Please help!

Realized I didn't include the Sigma in the platsolving settings, which I've set to 70 and still it reports hundreds upon hundreds of sources found. I tried setting it to like 500 just to see what would happen but it reverted back to 50. Is there a max setting for the sigma value in the platesolving settings?

Thank you anyone ahead of time for assistance! Guarantee I'm doing something wrong that may be simple but I'm willing to learn :mrgreen:

Hi,

first, the maximum value of sigma that can be used is 250, although I suspect that this will eliminate all stars in almost all cases! Certainly turning it up should reduce the star count.

I uploaded your image above to nova.astrometry.net, just to validate the size and position in the sky : http://nova.astrometry.net/user_images/ ... #annotated

Not sure if that is the whole of your image, or just part, but it is quite a small FOV - just 19 arc seconds wide. If you are trying to solve an image down to 20 arc seconds wide, you should have the index files down to at least 4 arc seconds (4202-*.fits) and all larger scales installed. I can't see any reference to trying these small scales in your log, so I wonder if this might be the problem.

cheers,

Robin

Thank you so much! I will install the proper datasets. I was a little confused on which ones to download. Hopefully that helps it, and I'll tweak the sigma values along with it as well in my next attempted session (hopefully tonight!).

I have had a lot going on so unfortunately only got outside with my gear again only just tonight. I redownloaded asnvr with the proper datasets for my FOV per your recommendation. Unfortunately its still finding >800 sources even at a sigma of 250, and everything I'm reading suggests I need 25-100 sources, rather than >800 that I'm getting now. Even with the correct fits files the platesolver checks against, and even also trying both methods of platesolving (blind vs targeted using the scope controls button), it fails to solve the image. I suspect all the hundreds of sources its detecting to be the issue but I'm new enough to all this to not know for sure.

Do you have any tips on why it might be finding so many sources even at a sigma of 250? I was able to find the exact frame it was trying to use in the appdata\local\temp folder, seen here:

Image

Here is the astrometry.net page for the image: http://nova.astrometry.net/user_images/4892493#original

Let's say I can't figure out using Sharpcap to platesolve. This question may be out of scope here, but is there any way I can plug the data from manually uploading a frame to Atrometry.net into EQMOD somehow to manually feed the solving data to the mount? I looked around EQMOD but I can't find anywhere in the settings to plug in the numbers that site is feeding back to me.

Hi,

I've downloaded your image from the url above: I see stars being not very sharp and a lot of hotpixels, the histogram seems to be left-side cut.
My SC (ansvr) found > 10,000 sources - mainly hotpixels! (You can load an image into the Deep Sky Test Camera and solve it).

After removing the hotpixels (Fitswork or any other SW with a blurring filter) and reducing the image size by 50% (image attached), with sigma=5, SC finds 319 sources and solves within ~60 s:

Solution : RA=20:01:38,Dec=+22:35:24 (J2000)
Field of View : 0.31x0.18 degrees
Time : Sun, 18 Jul 2021 13:07:58 GMT
Orientation : up is 268.3 degrees E of N

Try to reduce the exposure time and/or use Darks to reduce the hotpixels.

Cheers, Christian

Thank you! I was using darks in sharpcap but I will retry that and fiddle with exposure/gain even more to see what I get.

Hi,

oddly if I load that PNG into the deep sky test camera, it finds only about 60 sources (sigma=50). I don't get a solution, but I think that is because I don't have the indices installed down to a small enough scale.

Code: Select all

Robin,

FYI, with sigma 50 I get 37 sources, solving occurs within about 90 sec.

Hi,

that sounds workable to me - thanks for sharing. Looks like getting the right sort of sigma value is the key here.

cheers,
