I ran across some beautiful eclipse images this morning that showed the fully eclipsed Moon with stars showing in the background, and realized my data probably had stars too if I stretched them properly. Sure enough, the stars are there. So I processed a bit and this is the result. I’m going to have to create a Photoshop action so I can do a bunch of these and perhaps redo my movie, but for now, here’s a sample.
