This animation was taken from processing 235 AVI video files. Each file was cropped at 1008x950 and ranged in size from 2.02 to 2.38GB in size. After stacking in AutoStakkert3 the files were sharpened in AstraImage and RGB combined via automation with Python and AutoHotKey resulting in 75 images that were then converted with ImageMagik into an animation. The total time imaging was 117minutes and I would have had the rest of Io's transit if not for misjudging the scope placement into the path of a gorgeous Oak tree in my front yard.
