Saturn and Moons

Similar to Jupiter in difficulty of imaging is Saturn, the fifth planet from our sun. Not quite as bright as Jupiter, and smaller, it also poses a bit of an imaging challenge. However, when successful, a wonderful picture will result, as seen below.

I'll add some more pictures, similar to those of Jupiter and its moons here soon! Really I will...
