[Numpy-discussion] Finding Star Images on a Photo (Video chip) Plate?

[Wayne Watson]

Suppose I have a 640x480 pixel video chip and would like to find star 
images on it, possible planets and the moon. A possibility of noise 
exits, or bright pixels. Is there a known method for finding the 
centroids of these astro objects?
