    Duh. I assumed AST/ADT was the special Arizona Time Zone. It isn't. Is it the Atlantic Time Zone used in the Canadian Maritime provinces? Arizona does not observe daylight savings and is in synch with Mountain Standard Time in the Winter. Simply changing the zone to -7.0000 and no daylight savings fixed the problem. It also made the yellow line move to approximately the right meridian.

    For some reason HNSKY's view of the sky has gotten "wrong." Previously, it worked flawlessly, I'm visiting Tucson, Arizona, where we are in the process of buying a home. We live currently in Evanston, Illinois. I did not bring my telescope on this trip, only my laptop. But with the night skies clear after a week and a half of what they call "monsoon" season, when the night skies are almost entirely cloudy, I decided to step outside and have a naked-eye look at the awesome sky, which is impossible...

    And just to extrapolate from your answer, and the help tip, I should not even be attempting to stack planetary images, correct?

    Another question on my attempts to observe Jupiter: On the stack menu is a "Planetary" checkbox. The "tool tip" for this checkbox says Checkmark this option for analysing planetary images on sharpness. Note the stacking routine is not suitable for the stacking of planetary images. Okay, what does this mean? Does it mean you should check this box when analyzing planetary images and only if you do so will the stacking routine be suitable? Or is stacking never recommended for planetary images? If the...

    On the tools menu are several functions that seem to be irreversible: DE-mosaic Bayer matrix F8 Auto correct colours. F9 In particular, with the DE-mosaic Bayer matrix, there seems to be no way to revert this action, and I presume the same for Auto correct colours. F9, although this option doesn't seem to do anything to my image. I see no way to revert these actions other than File-->Settings-->Return to default settings and exit, and then reopen the file. Is there a way to undo these actions? Another...
