The KI-SENS project's space debris observation telescope can do more than tracking orbital objects - it also can be used for astrophotography.
Here’s a stunning image of the Horsehead Nebula. This composite image was created by stacking exposures captured through S-II, O-III, IR-pass, and H-alpha filters, with a total exposure time of 80 minutes.

☄️ What a view! You see a stacked image of C/2023 A3 Tsuchinshan-ATLAS. Slight false-coloring can be seen through O3, S2, H-Alpha (narrow band) filters.
This photo has been taken using our #KISENS Optical Telescope. In the project, intelligent optical sensors for space observation are being developed, which will be able to detect approaches and contribute to collision avoidance. Further Info can be found on https://go.uniwue.de/ki-sens
