AstroAlign Description

AstroAlign is an application that can help you edit your astronomical images. AstroAlign implements a color "pipeline" that makes it possible to mix or replace colors, and export/import color separations to/from other programs. A special feature is the ability to perform RGB color alignment, either automatically or manual (or a combination). Such color alignment can to a certain degree compensate for atmospheric chromatic aberration or similar effects caused by achromatic telescopes. Also, an image can be sharpened using the unsharp mask feature, and contrast/ brightness can be adjusted using the adjust color features. Features are available that makes it possible to feed "green signals" into the "red channel" etc. when this is required. Such compensation can provide finer detail, but it also causes loss of information and color balance. Use with caution.
