Saturn at ridiculous 8 deg. IR-742

[T-WING]

Very clear skies lately! Last night sky was clear all the way down to the horizon.
Gave it a try at Saturn just for the fun of it . Very faint. Sun is at only -7 degrees.

Stacked 800/10000.
SW200PDS + 2.5x Powermate
ASI 224MC + IR742
Gain 337
exp.time 17ms

Poor details, but next time it reaches a decent altitude will be in 2030

 

Have a good one!

I rather like the coloring. A fine attempt.

Very good capture given the altitude.

There's always another option TW. You could take a trip to somewhere in the Southern Hemisphere

That is very, very low. Great result considering its position in the sky!

Good capture, needles and haystacks spring to mind.
