Not without my readers

Great image. I have seen Cassini's division by eye with my Meade ETX-125, and a slightly darker polar patch (though with no detail). The stacking brings up much more detail than I could ever see by eye in the scope.

😍wow!

Can confirm! bsky.app/profile/urba...

Not with their phone camera, then? Dammit. *Cancels flight*

Terrific! Camera? Lens? Telescope? What was used?

I see earth every day

Given its brightness, sightings of Venus before sunset and after sunrise are common.

I saw Venus once during the day with naked eye when I was in high school and had decent vision. Found it on my own as I knew where it would be. No way now, but I totally love seeing it at dusk or later. (Would enjoy at dawn but I'm too lazy to get up early plus don't have clear view east at home.)

That's a very cool photo.

Radio waves are how we take measurements on Voyager 1.

Sorry, need to share: > What kind of camera (& ZOOM LENS)? > Length of exposure? Otherwise? NOT 'buyin' it' .... But HELLO? (Oops!) Posting on Facebook or Instagram is NOT any kind of valid 'endorsement'. People are just so .... GULLIBLE. 🤔😖👎😎🙃

Lol! "saturn"

That is soooo amazing. Please don't be AI.

Beautiful

Me: I really want to see Saturn up close Also me: it’s too far away , you can’t afford the rocket, and you aren’t immune to radiation Me:….but I really want to see Saturn up close This is me every night trying to go to sleep

I often try to observe Jupiter and Saturn during twlight as it cuts down on the glare, allowing low-contrast detail a bit more visible. I find the effect more pronounced on Saturn than Jupiter.

So cool.

It's amazing that even if you were going light speed when you passed Earth, you're still over an hour away from Saturn.

75 light minutes is a hell of a road trip...

I still remember the exact sensation 15 years ago when a friend first showed me Saturn through his telescope.

I'm real good at that with Earth.

That sounds amazing!
