Starbase Image Set Repository:
Starbase offers a meticulously organized repository of image sets, each focusing on a specific astronomical object. Through the use of filters, astrophotographers and image processors can capture diverse characteristics of these celestial entities, providing unparalleled depth and detail in their imagery.
Notably, deep sky objects are often the subject of prolonged observation, with image sets spanning from days to months. Conversely, images of planets, comets, and the moon are typically obtained within a single imaging session, offering comprehensive snapshots of these closer celestial bodies.
Upon purchasing an image set from Starbase, astrophotographers and image processors gain access to high-quality raw image data, as well as master calibration files such as bias, darks, and flats, where applicable. This comprehensive package empowers photographers to delve into the nuances of their captured imagery, ensuring the highest quality results in their astrophotography endeavors.

The name, 'Insight Observatory', was given to the project, as it seemed to be an appropriate designation. The name is relative to its mission: providing insight, to students and the public, by exposing them to the science of Astronomy, and the research projects that are available for them to participate in, and, possibly, contribute to a discovery.
