A very stormy Saturn - May 2nd
Hi all, on May 2nd I could finally capture some storm on Saturn for the first time this year. As a compensation-bonus, I captured the actual nice pair where the following spot is seen as a 45 deg tilted 8 shape.
Such a double spot is also seen in an image captured 8 (yeah, another 8…) minutes later, so I can fairly state it’s real although the odd shape.
The preceding spot is less concentrated and fading over the W-E direction.
The poor transparency caused by thin cirrus lowered somewhat the color contrast. Seeing was steadily fair.
Also, notice the Saturn bright disc seen through the Cassini division. On late March, the dark rings’ shadow was seen:
Saturn won’t cease to amaze me!
