6. CoLiTec CoLiTec 6 You can see the real images, where ColiTec discovered famous comet ISON. On these frames, comet practically not moving between frames. The size of comet about 5 pixels, but it moved only on 3 pixels from first to fourth frame. CoLiTec can detect faint fast moving objects (FMO) by their tracks. CoLiTec can detect very slow and very fast moving object
