Re-did a broadband Saturn stack from the 5th with multiple align points to see what moons were visible and was very pleased to find Rhea, Tethys, Dione and Titan. They are pretty faint, since no additional brightness enhancement has been applied - but they are definitely there. Titan has been resolved as an extended source - it's pretty big. Thanks for looking.

Very nice Ray. A couple of other points in there as well, but may be stars?

Hi Jakob. Thanks for your comment. Regards Ray
Hi Rob. There are a few dots that may be either stars or noise - the raw feed showed a period when there were quite a few isolated flashes - cosmic ray events maybe or local radioactivity. Did a high res stack on Titan - Saturn didn't stack very well from that align point, but Titan looks like a moon with an atmosphere should. didn't really appreciate how big it is! Regards Ray
