Thanks for the tip-off! One problem, particularly for city dwellers, may be that the moon is almost full on the 9th Feb. and will be sitting at the same angle above the horizon (about 30°). Saturn will be to the NE and the moon just slightly west of north at 0030 hrs. in Melbourne, when the transit of Titan is just beginning. The viewing should be better on the 24th when there is no moon, although Saturn will be about 5° lower. (Info courtesy Stellarium)
