Details:
The images of Saturn
and 6 (of its 62 moons)were taken Sunday morning at 2am. Not great conditions, especially with the bright moon. A Meade LX6 telescope and a ZWOASI120MC video camera were used for Saturn.
The Saturn video (taken at
30 fps)was combined with a separate video of the moons (taken at 1 fps). Two separate videos were required to capture both separately because of the difference in
apparent brightness. Saturn had a magnitude of +.1 and the
the faintest moon, Mimas, had a magnitude of 12.5.
