Saturn 21/01/09

Hi all,

Imaged Saturn every ten minutes from 16:30 UTC through to 18:20 UTC.
The seeing for the first hour was 4-5/10 and my data was not good enough for scientific evaluation. The temp was still 26 C.

As twilight approached the seeing improved markedly and I got some very good data. I will post an animation later of a inner moon transit, shadow transit and new storm.

This RGB image was 2000 frames per channel with the best 700 of each channel stacked.

Regards
Trevor
