Saturn's Moons

[Cosmic Geoff]

An EEVA-style image of Saturn's moons. 14 July, 22:07 UT, taken with CPC800, ASI224MC +ADC.

Exposure 5 secs. The faintest moon visible is Encelasus, mag. 11.7

Next night I looked visually with an 8" SCT and could not make out any moons at all.  Our Moon nearby was near full.

Saturn is severely overexposed in order to get the moons.

Great Stuff... This is something [another thing] one can do really well with EEVA. 😎

Amazed you were able to pick up the moons. - well done. Being honest , much prefer the view of these moons and Saturn through my former big Dob.  Mike

Great capture. Very impressed that the super bright Saturn hasn’t blown out the close faint moons.

You can spot a couple of the moons with a normal visual Dob, but not the fair ones.
