Saturn March 9th good seeing EZ bright spot

Hi All,


Imaged Saturn this morning in good seeing and have resolved a bright spot in the EZ. It seems quite some time since I have seen such a feature in the EZ. I have measured it in WinJUPOS to be at L3 112.3 Lat -1

The spot is just to the F side of the CM in IR and just to the P side of the CM in RGB.

Thanks for looking



Regards
Trevor

Wow mate, must be having a streak of good luck re seeing over Broken Hill? Someone's got to get it though, so it may as well be you

Congrats.

Thanks very much Ray, it's unusual to see a bright spot in the EZ and I was quite surprised with it, have sent it off to Georg.

Thanks very much Asi, yep, it seems to be hanging in there nicely but as sure as the Sun rises in the East it will inevitably turn to muck but I sure am enjoying it at the moment.
