Image Request Form: Mosaic

Use this form if your observing project involves taking images at a few different pointing positions, all in the same filter and exposure time. These images can be combined to form a wide field mosaic photograph. If you wish to do a color mosaic, submit this form separately for each color filter. For other types of observations, use a different form.

First Name:
Last Name:
Course:
Course password: (leave blank to generate a trial plan)

Make the following settings for all images in the mosaic:

Filter: Exposure time: Binning:
1x1
3x3
 
Other: seconds  
   
   
   
   

Indicate the position of the center of each image, in J2000 coordinates.
Each position must have a different name (e.g. for a mosaic of Orion, you might name the images OrionNW, OrionNE, OrionSW, and OrionSE). Do not put spaces in the names.
