Description

SCT 11", f/20, ASI290MM, Baader filters

Joining - via WinJupos - IR685 nm, 610 nm longpass and R filter images, gives up the elusive storms over Saturn, including a big and longstanding one, at the EZ, just transiting the meridian here.

It is barely visible in the RGB image, mostly for the R channel, almost invisible in G and B, and very prominent above 610 nm, had no time to get a CH4 image this time, but given the general murkiness of Saturn upper atmosphere, I do not expect it to show up much at this aperture.
