Starbase Image Set Repository
For those passionate about image processing over data acquisition, Insight Observatory offers “Starbase,” a subscription-based platform housing a curated repository of stunning images captured by the Astronomical Telescopes for Educational Outreach (ATEO) and affiliate telescopes (AFIL). Organized into target-specific image sets, these high-quality resources can be purchased and downloaded for permanent access, enabling deep-sky object processing.
Users can further personalize their experience by requesting specific image sets through the “Advanced Image Request” on the ATEO Portal. Approved requests are added to Starbase, ensuring a continually growing and diverse collection.
