Details:
I imaged this " Very Rare Event" on 12-24-25 of the largest Saturn moon, Titan, just after it transited Saturn from my Manorville, NY, Observatory. I learned this image was a rare event that occurs every 15 years, during which Earth, Saturn, and Titan align. I could not image in color due to poor seeing conditions.
My imaging setup was an EdgeHD 14" / Baader Planetarium Baader Fluorite Flatfield Converter Barlow (BPFFC) / Gutekunst Optiksysteme Atmospheric Dispersion Corrector Player One URANUS-M IMX585 USB3.0 Mono Camera with an Astronomik Red ProPlanet 642 IR 1 1/4" filter, all on an AP1600GTO mount.
Kind Regards To ALL 🙂
