Saturn, Feb 19 + moon transits

A nice surprise this morning, good seeing and a pair of moon transits on Saturn.

Here's a quick 2-frame animation showing Tethys + its shadow entering from the right and also Rhea leaving the disk on the left.

Both moons are approx 0.2" in size and magnitude 13.

cheers, Bird
