Saturn - Damian Peach


Saturn
Damian Peach
took this RGB image of Saturn with an ST-5C
camera equipped with a CFW5C internal color filter wheel through a 12"
SCT at f/20.7.  Although his RGB images are typically R=7.5 sec, G=9sec
and B=15 sec., in this case he averaged a varying number of exposures
for each color.  Note the planet's globe is seen through the Cassini Division
which is just 0.25" wide where it crosses the planet.
