These images are north up and were taken by my C11 mounted on an AP900GTO mount with a DMK 21F04 camera.
You can also see my past images of Saturn at the ALPO Japan Kansai Branch site.

SATURN 2008/2009
| A new season for Saturn.
This will be an exciting year because it will be the year when the ring
plane crossing occurs. Sadly this event won't be visible here on earth
because the ring plane crossing occurs in September 2009 when Saturn is
almost in solar conjunction. Transits of Saturn's major moons will
also be seen.

November 22, 2008 Finally got a clear sky to image Saturn. The ring is almost gone but a hint of the cassini division can be seen at the edges. Lots of surface details on Saturn! A lot of distinct bands in Saturn. Note the bright spots just north of the SEB. |
