Some of you may know about this but others may not so I thought it would be worth putting it up here.
The TSSAP processing challenge was set up to give us a place to share our AP processing skills and learn from each other. It is essentially a group of us processing a standard data set, showing what we have achieved and how we did it, sharing ticks and tips and asking for help.
So, if you have not looked in on it before have a look at the link below and give it a go. If you have done it before, then Challenge 17 - using Gordons M97 Owl Nebula data is now open. Even if you dont want to process the data yourself, you may be able to point those of us who are struggling in the right direction.
