Astrophotography is often described as a mix of art and science, and nowhere is that more true than when you’re diving into the technical numbers behind your imaging session.

From HFR to RMS, SQM to Star Count, these numbers are the silent narrators of your night under the stars. Understanding and monitoring them can make or break your imaging session. Understanding them, keeping en eye on them and trying to improve these numbers will definitely lead to capturing better data which will result in a far better final image.
