Oortrageous Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Saturn was the first celestial object I saw and recognised when I started looking a couple of weeks ago. It was definitely a humbling experience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crmcg Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I felt the same way when I saw it for the first time too. Good jobSent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bish Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I first saw it through a 50mm scope that you could just make out the shape of the rings. The fact it was more than just a point of light was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Aldebaran- Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I hit Saturn on my first ever telescope a few years ago, and my first night viewing. Was just randomly aiming the finder at a few bright stars and looking through the eyepiece. Just another star in the finder..... Pop my eye to the eyepiece........Wow!!!! Saturn, purely by chance. Blew my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romx Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Finally good enough conditions to see Saturn through my new 8mm vixen npl eyepiece although there was atmospheric blurring the image quality and visibility from the stock 10mm super is amazing. first time ive seen clear banding and good separation of the rings definitely a massive WOW day for me with Saturn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
