Thanks very much Dave.

Thanks very much Markus. Tethys & Enceladus showed up faintly at the exposure & frame rate I used for Saturn, In the instance of the frames used in the animation I just used a mask for the moons, increasing the exposure for just the area inside the mask. This made the moons bright enough to be more easily seen. To do the moons properly a data set would be required with the exposure set for the moons, not Saturn. Saturn would be way overexposed. Processing such data would be a true representation of the moons relative to the limits of the telescope and imaging train combination. My obsession is atmospheric structure & phenomena on Saturn so I never put much effort into the moons.
