Problem:The seeing in this image is bad. Note how the stars appear round and big. The same image was taken during good seeing conditions, and the number of detected stars is substantially higher in that image (follow link below). |
Fix:If the project allows seeing conditions as bad as the current ones, fire away. If not, wait until the conditions are within the seeing boundaries set for the project in question. |
