Saturn...and 700th Sky at Night!

[Paul G. Abel]

Greetings all!

Well, i hope you all enjoyed the 700th episode of the Sky at Night? I thought it was magnificent!!!!

Afterwards, I went outside and made this drawing of Saturn- as you can see there are a couple of white spots, and much of the northern hemisphere has a distinctly greenish hue. Note to that the A-Ring on the following side of the ansae has a distinct light bluish pastel colour; this was not present on the proc. side!

Best wishes,

-Paul.

Hi Paul, I waited up special to see this addition (not bad for me on a school night). Loved it!.. thanks for a fantastic 700.. look forward to the next 700!!

Best to you

Rob

Cracking Saturn observation Paul. The colouration difference in A ring is intriguing. I wonder what is causing that!

Seems like a fun and very humbling hobby. Looking forward to learning as i go on.
