My recent picture: https://app.astrobin.com/u/YingtianZHANG?i=fh8t46#gallery on NGC3166 galaxy pair seems to be stuck at plate-solving. The status change from: “AstroBin is preparing to plate-solve this image..” and “AstroBin is plate-solving this image with Astrometry.net...”. I’ve tried different methods, including enable downscale plate-solving at factor of 2, and given information of RA/DEC:

📷 image.pngimage.pngIt’s still not plate solved. I hope to get some help with what’s going on with this project?

Hello,


thanks for reaching out.


There appears to be power outage at the data center that hosts astrometry.net's infrastructure (I've been in touch with their staff), and currently AstroBin depends on it for plate-solving.


When astrometry.net will become available again, I will queue all failed/pending jobs again.

If you need additional clarification, please get in touch using the Help menu → Support link

Closing this topic now, to keep the AstroBin forums focused on discussions regarding astrophotography and astronomy.


Kind regards,
Salvatore
