TheSky6 Photos - What Equipment?

[KenMiller]

To learn how to better process images, I referenced my work to Starry Night Pro Plus 6 and TheSky6.

This is a segment of NGC7789.

Notice that Starry Night is missing so many stars that it's difficult to recognize as the same segment of space.

Does anyone know what equipment was used to generate the photos in TheSky6? I took a quick look in the Help file and the Bisque site but didn't find any info on that.

In TheSky6, the representations of the stars come from the underlying star catalogs. The photos of the deep space objects come from the DSS images that are available on the web.

Thanks Neil - I didn't know there was such a thing - very cool.
