Description

Imaged Saturn in RGB and IR on the night of August 10-11, 2020. Sky conditions were very good for my location with average to above average seeing and very good transparency. The image was generated using a mono camera and IR pass filter.

Imaged with a C8 Evo, ZWO ADC, Baader IR 685nm pass filter, and ZWO ASI290MM. Imaging train was configured to give me ~F/20. Image capture using Firecapture with gain set at 375 and an exposure of 25 ms. Stacking in AutoStakkert3 (best 30% of ~12000 frames captured over 240 seconds). Wavelet sharpening in Registax6. De-rotated and combined 3 images in Winjupos.
