Saturn, 19 Nov 2024

A brief patch of clear skies last night before the clouds rolled in. I was hoping to capture a double transit of Tethys and Rhea on Saturn, but it wasn't to be. Instead I was able to catch the two moons approaching Saturn, shown below at captured size with (L-R) Rhea and Tethys shown brighter than actual.
