Saturn July 27th dark EZ feature & +63 spot
Imaged Saturn July 27th in reasonable seeing targeting the +63 disturbance. When putting together my animation of 685nm IR data covering 80 minutes of Saturn rotation, along with the +63 spot I notice an elongated dark feature in the EZ.. I measure the EZ feature to be Lat +0.7 L1 3.5 L2 184.3 L3 100.6.
Looking at each 685nm IR data set in isolation this dark feature is easy to miss but is easily seen in the animation so I think it is real and not an artifact.
I note that the +63 dark spot continues to drift at spot on -11.4 L3 deg/day.
Regards
Trevor
