Saturn June 10th in reasonable seeing.

Hi All,


Imaged Saturn tonight in quite reasonable seeing. I normally try for RGB & IR data sets every 30 mins, got part way through the "R" channel of the 2nd data set when the cloud arrived and that was it for the night.


Have attached 1 RGB & 807nm IR data set and the R channel from the start of the next data set. This is the first data for some time that I thought was worth resampling.
Not much happening in this section of the storm.

Thanks for looking.


Regards
Trevor

Saturn is still fascinating and the IR is getting to be the most imteresting. I hate it when cloud ends a set before completion especially when seeing looks useful, but at least you got enough to show the detail in rgb.

John.

Thanks John, the CMIII for this RGB was 251.5 degrees, more or less opposite the head of the storm which is at approx CMIII 50 degrees, so not a lot is happening in the section of the storm trail but I was pleased with the result.

Nice images Trevor, the IR really brings out the moon that isn't visible in the others. Thanks for the views.
