Description

Observed and imaged Jupiter and Saturn on the night of July 13/14, 2019. Conditions were fair with seeing below average to average and good transparency. I was configured to image Jupiter and the Galilean moons at F/10 but decided to grab a few captures of Saturn while I was at it. I ended up drizzling the result 1.5x which seems to yield a better F/10 image result for me.

Imaged with a C8 Evo, ZWO ADC, Baader UV-IR Cut Moon & Skyglow filter, and ZWO ASI224MC. Imaging train was configured to give me ~F/10. Image capture using Firecapture with gain set at 300 and an exposure of 13.5 ms. Stacking in AutoStakkert3 (best 50% of ~20,000 frames captured over 180 seconds). Color balancing and Wavelet sharpening in Registax6. Derotated image in WinJUPOS.
