Thanks Dennis!

I saw your capture of Nereid a couple of months back.

Absolutely fantastic!

Given the Keck, only when fitted with adaptive optics, was able to
discern Thalassa after image processing, but was unable to locate
Naiad, it looks like a bigger telescope would be needed for Christmas
or the equivalent breadth in ingenuity, skill and patience.

Any diffraction limit one might bump against aside, the later
qualities you have demonstrated to have in droves.
