Recommended introduction to PixInsight. 21 November 2024 | Alexander
A worthy introduction to PixInsight. Clear and complete examples are crucial in order to get to grips with PixInsight due to the large number of topics to cover. Modest cost but I hope an expanded more detailed version will follow from this excellent author.
