Imaged Saturn Feb 20th in quite interesting conditions. Predictions were for good seeing, the disc of the planet and the Cassini division were quite crisp but with a ripple of varying magnitude going through the rings. The final result is more a triumph of the alignment quality of AutoStakkert. The North Polar vortex is well resolved as is the North Polar Hexagon. A considerable level of banding is visible while Dione can be seen below to the left. None of the features I have been tracking long term are visible but it is early days in this apparition.
