Saturn April 14th

Hi All,

Imaged Saturn last night and have good coverage of the new spot. This data is better than the data from April 12th, although this was at much lower alt and most of it was captured through varying amounts of high alt Cirrus. The cloud has somewhat softened the detail but even the new spot is better resolved than in my data from April 10th & 12th.

Have attached a couple of RGB & 807nm IR data sets. The first was captured at an alt of only 37 degrees and in spite of the cloud came up pretty well. The new NED spot is close to the CM. The final data set was at a much higher alt and the cloud had cleared.

Have also attached animations of the R & RGB data resampled 130%, a couple of the images were more effected by cloud than others.
