[Atmob-discuss] Saturn on Monday night

[John Boudreau]

Earlier this week we had a few nights of very steady seeing, but with poor transparency. This image was taken on Monday night. April 21st, at 10:45pm (0245UT on the 22nd). The poor transparency caused me to use a lower magnification than I'd usually like to, in order to keep the camera's exposure and gain settings reasonably low.

The image shows a storm --- appearing as a bright spot in Saturn's South Tropical Zone.
