Question

About 10 of us ASWArians got out to Whiteman park on Feb 24 to see the transit of Titan across Saturn that night. Looked like it was going to be a whiteout but it cleared for virtually the entire duration of the event. We got quite a good look at the shadow on our camera/monitor setup.

Will the transit on Mar 12 be visible in Perth or will Saturn be too low on the horizon for us to get a glimpse? And is that the same for the shadow transit on Mar 28? We'll be down at Dryandra for the ASWA Astrocamp that night and it would be something interesting to observe as a group.

Thanks,
HilB...
