Saturn March 10th good seeing

Hi All,

I apologize for creating a new thread for this data, I would have added it to my previous thread (March 9th) but I cannot work out how to change the subject of that post.

My run of good seeing continues, images Saturn this morning and have a dark spot in IR, bright in RGB on the Southern edge of the Great storm Remnant. It is over near the F limb in the RGB and moves from there to just short of the CM in my IR animation.

Thanks for looking


Regards
Trevor

Hope to start soon as weather is looking better here is Bris. Love the globe projection and the first image is very crisp indeed.

John.

Great stuff Trevor & no, this deserves it's own thread without a doubt!

I just got back in from viewing Saturn on the lappy @ prime. I won't repeat the lingo that came out of my mouth lol Back in again now without firing one shot off, even in anger. Not to worry, there's always tomorrow night if it's clear..

Great stuff again

Thanks very much Asi, beginning to feel a bit guilty about the run I am having. For sure when things look crook there will always be another day. I normally fall out of bed ( in a quite stealthy manner so as not to wake the boss) and wander outside the back door and if the stars look steady continue on down to my observatory and if the stars are wildly blinking, straight back to bed.

Saturn March 11th

Have stuck my March 11th data in here as I dont really want to hog the forum with to many threads.

My run continues, although this morning the seeing became quite variable. Have only one set of RGB & 742nm IR data.

The prediction for tomorrow morning however is the best I have seen for some time.


The long lived dark spot on the Southern edge of The Great Storm Remnant is midway over toward the P limb from the CM.

Thanks for looking

Regards
Trevor

IMO this is what forums are for - FOR HOGGING Trevor! Not not really, but I can actually understand the guilt complex forming just because good seeing is in your area; Been there done that. I still say every image set deserves a thread of it's own & I'd say most would agree with me..

Great results again mate & may your luck continue!

Oh & I must say there's not enough planet image threads here - Those blasted DSO imagers are the hogs here!
