7 hours of observation, one image every 90 seconds: that's 280 images. My phone takes 8 megapixel photos and those are about 2 MB, based on that the 870 megapixel image would be about 200 MB. 200 MB * 280 = 56 GB. Doesn't sound that much.
Did they publish the images? I'm sure many astronomers would be happy to examine them.
