Saturn UTC
CM1: 308.70°
CM2: 54.40°
CM3: 340.00°
CLat: +29.80°
Description
Unlike most nights, I started imaging Saturn with the methane band filter since the C8 was already focused for imaging without a barlow.
Notes:
- The North North Temperate Belt is dark.
- The North Equatorial Belt is split by a thin band.
