I then used a program called Startrails, which is designed for this sort of picture, to stack the images: http://www.startrails.de/html/software.html Another stacking program I would recommend is Registax: http://www.astronomie.be/registax/ This is more for stacking pictures of the same object (Say the moon, a planet, or nebula) to increase contrast and sharpness, rather than startrails.
