Google was no help here.

Does anyone have experience with printing Milky Way or other astro photography (e.g. star trails) to stretched canvas? I've done a fair amount of printing to metallic paper and one to face-mounted acrylic and I like those. But, was curious about canvas.

TIA

Why not? I find there to be excellent detail in canvas prints, rivaling similar sized prints on paper. I haven't done any night time photography prints, but all my canvas printing has excellent detail no matter what size I chose, including up to 36"x48", or pano-sized 24"x60".
