Description

Observed and imaged Jupiter and Saturn on the night of July 15, 2020. Conditions were great this evening with clear skies, average to above average seeing, and good transparency. I consider it a lucky break to get some decent imaging conditions near opposition for Jupiter and Saturn.

Imaged with a C8 Evo, ZWO ADC, Baader UV-IR Cut filter, and ZWO ASI224MC. Imaging train was configured to give me ~F/20. Image capture using Firecapture with gain set at 325 and an exposure of 20 ms. Stacking in AutoStakkert3 (best 30% of ~15,000 frames captured over 300 seconds). Color balancing and Wavelet sharpening in Registax6. Derotated images in WinJUPOS. (4 subs used to generate final image).
