A real challenge for all you planetary imagers.

Ge, imagine being able to get that resoultion, to see Uranus that large, amazing.

Given the improving technology, what'll it be, 5, 10 or 20 years before us amateurs get something like this? Probably won't be long.

I can see the brain cells already plotting how to achieve this with amateur gear.

First step F200, what aperture?
