Milky Way landscape stacking

Two problems.
One pass.

Stars move between frames. Your foreground doesn't. Nightscape Stacker separates the two layers, aligns and stacks each independently, then composites the result — all locally, no uploads.

Dual-layer stacking

Sky and foreground are masked, stacked independently, then merged. Stars stay sharp; ground stays clean.

Panorama mode

Plate-solves each frame with ASTAP to handle wide rotation angles across a multi-panel Milky Way arc.

Stacking methods

Mean, median, or kappa-sigma clipping. Optional denoise, unsharp mask, and arcsinh stretch in post.
