Tikaboo Peak Hike - Area 51 Panorama

UPDATE: THE ORIGINAL SIZED VERSION OF THIS PANORAMA HAS BEEN REMOVED SINCE A NEWER AND BETTER PANORAMA HAS BEEN CREATED. A LINK TO THIS PANORAMA CAN BE FOUND BELOW.

Panorama stitched together from photos taken with a Digital Rebel XT mounted to a Celestron 130mm telescope (2000mm focal length). This is a 50% reduction of the original panorama. The full size image doesn't add any more detail so the half size is fine. This panorama includes the main portion of the base from the hangar under construction to the DYCOMMS dishes and new tower.

The detail in the right third of the panorama decreased due to massive wind shake. The first 2/3 was OK. I used a flat field image to eliminate exposure inconsistencies and vignetting. Hopefully I will do panoramas through this telescope better in the future.

A newer and far superior panorama can be found at:
