Saturn and Jupiter

After selling off most of my astro gear about 4 years ago, I took out the trusty 8" Dob and did some old school imaging with my Toucam. Brought back memories of what I used to do about 10 years ago.

The Toucam still produced some pleasing videos even though I'm limited to about 8-10secs of video due to no tracking. I might have to borrow my old EQ6 from the person I sold it to so I can have some fun with Mars in the next few months.

Anyways, here's what I could come up with limited gear. Stack of about 110 frames for both Jupiter and Saturn using AutoStakkert. Nothing compared to what others have been producing but these still show what an old webcam can produce

Considering the small number of frames, they look good.
Now you've had this success, you might get interested in getting back into it again with some modern cameras.
