I have been working hard on the imagery taken remotely at the Siding Springs observatory in Australia. I had mosaic data and stacked the overlapping parts altogether to get more detail and did lots of postprocessing to try to get the most out of this one. I think the result is quite astonishing (at least for me...).

Telescope: Takahashi FSQ106
Camera: SBIG-STL11000
Exposures: 25x15 minutes

The full resolution is over 20 Megapixel and can be found via the link below.

Note: curvature of the Earth is partly due to the wide angle camera lens.

Story: the first stratospheric balloon launched from the Székely Land went 21 km high. This picture was taken by the onboard camera somewhere above Mures or Bistrita-Nasaud county, Romania. It carried a camera, a GPS and GSM transmitter and a radiation badge. I was involved as a radio person, on the PR side of the project.
