I don't know if this is in the correct section, but what is stacking, or how is it done?

There are three main areas of stacking I'm editing
Exposure Stacking (Star Trails) - done to allow you to merge possibly hundreds of exposures into a single exposure to capture star trails
Deep sky stacking - used in Astro photography to stack images shot for different wavelengths of light into a single image of say a galaxy or nebula
Focus Stacking used in macro photography where DoF is extremely narrow to artificially broaden DoF by merging many exposures taking the in focus area from each exposure to make a single image
So which one would you like more information on?
