Conditions were quite good this morning, albeit the clouds at first made me contemplate going back to sleep. Still got about 5 min of data. Next time I gotta get that full hours worth smile.gif

Thank you for posting this. I popped out briefly to see Saturn last night- my seeing wasn't as good as yours! I wanted make sure that the cloud band i glimpsed visually was there and thanks to your image I now know it was, good work!

Lots and lots of clouds and rain. I've mostly just been popping in and liking a post or two without much commentary.

Lovely - looks like a resolved Titan too.
