Saturn UTC
CM1: 289.70°
CM2: 14.50°
CM3: 353.00°
CLat: +29.00°
Description
I decided to go for Saturn one more time tonight to take advantage of its higher altitude.
Notes:
- The north polar regions are green.
- With opposition soon arriving, the rings are starting to surge in brightness as the angle of reflection approaches 0°.
