Saturn Feb 19th

Hi All,

Imaged Saturn this morning in good seeing but poor transparency. All data over the 67 minute session was captured through varying amounts of cloud. Have attached 3 742nm IR, 1 R & 1 RGB data sets along with an animation of the IR data which covers 67 minutes of Saturn rotation. The North Polar hexagon is well seen in the animation. Have also attached polar projections from the IR, R & RGB data.



Regards
Trevor
