More WIP AstroPhotography

After a long hiatus I've restarted effort on my own set of python tools for amateur astronomical data reduction. Here is a work in progress output from combining the very short set of SN 2023ixf images provied as part of the iTelesop Plan-20 Premium image set. Taken with iTelescope T24. 3x FITS images each of 300s Red, Green, Blue filter. iTelescope stock calibration, so there may be some residual bad pixels. Astrometric solution using Astromatic.net, and images realigned to North up, East to the left, with 0.62 arcseconds per pixel. Net exposure 15 minutes in each filter. RGB PNG generated by stiff, wavelet denoised in the gimp. Of course three images in each filter is much less data than needed for a serious product, but its ideal for testing my pipeline.
