He said he "applied lucky imaging techniques which involved thousands of individual photos per tile"

Andrew McCarthy stated that Don't use a telescope directly to capture the sun, it will cause problems

He mentioned that his telescope is specially designed for this work

If you try to do this directly you could go bling or start burning etc.

Moreover, Andrew McCarthy said he had enough experience and he also did many experiments with it

Andrew McCarthy is already popular for celestial images which went viral and interesting picture
