This video is essentially identical to another video on this channel from an animation point of view. Since this is the first image I've ever taken with my new telescope, and since I neither have intentions to transform this channel to an astrophoto channel, nor create a new channel with this theme, this was how it had to be this time.
I'm quite happy with the photo, and less happy with how the black hole distorts it. Also, the animation magnifies my mediocre post processing skills. 120x30 s, ISO 640, no flattener, unguided, B4 skies, Siril & Gimp. Gear: Nikon D850, Sky-watcher {NEQ6 PRO, Evostar 100ED DS-PRO}.
Animation done with Python and FFmpeg.
Music made by @gpcbass, called SEQ2 (also used previously).
