Mars & Saturn Feb 14th UT in good seeing

Hi All,

Mars in quite reasonable seeing and Saturn in good seeing. Still tinkering with my capture regime for Mars, the Flea3 is just so much more sensitive than was the DMK. The NPC seems to be a bit dusty at the moment.

There is a bright spot within the storm remnant on Saturn in both RGB & 807nm IR. This is the first time for the year that any such detail has been visible in IR. This is probably the highest res data I have captured this apparition of Saturn.

Have attached an RGB & 807nm IR data set form Mars. I continue to tinker with the capture regime for Mars and I think I am making progress.

Have attached a couple of Saturn RGB's and an IR that splits them in time. By blinking the IR with the RGB's the bright spot is clearly visible in IR. Have also attached a very hi res animation of RGB data.

Thanks for looking.
Regards
Trevor

PS: will also try and post a "B" channel straight out of R6 with absolutely no post processing at all. I am having problems with my internet connection so this might take a while to upload.
