Hello,
Here is my annual effort at imaging Uranus and his 4 brighter satellites.
Taken with Tak Mewlon 180 F12, Tak x1.6 Extender and SBIG St2000XM CCD camera. The final image is a composite of 5x2sec RGB for the planet's disc and 10x20s, 10x30s, 10x45s and 1x300s Lum for the satellites and field stars. The series was taken over the period of 8:34pm to 10:26pm with Uranus and the satellites moving against the background of fixed stars, so the composite is a blend of frames from this session.
I’ve attached a screen print from SkyTools for information.
Uranus details:- Magnitude: 5.72
