Hi everyone,

Here is an image of Cassini I took on April 16, 2005. I tried it at f/35 but the seeing conditions wouldn't allow for it. This one taken at f/24.5 came out better.

Meade LX90 8" SCT @ f/24.5
Phillips ToUcam Pro 840
Edmund Optics R+IR band filter
Seeing 5/10
Frames= 260/1053 @ 5fps
Image Taken at 1:36 UT on April 17 2005
Resized 110%

Thanks for looking,

Ed Roach
