Educational Material: FITS Liberator - Globular Cluster NGC 6652

This FITS Liberator Education Material includes:

A challenge for the determined enthusiast.
Please note, that these images are not aligned, and one also need to be rotated before the three exposures correspond to each other. This is definitely not the data set you should take, if this is your first try at astronomical image processing!
