Despite having a jet stream over us we managed to get an image of the  Tethy's shadow transit.
Note the group of storms in a later photo.

Christopher Go (Celestron C11)
Seeing was again excellent this evening. But I had to deal with clouds. Transparency was variable because of this.
The SED is fading. It is also elongated now and seems to have split into two. Note another white oval north of the SED. You can see this better in this file:///E:/astro/saturn/file:///E:/astro/saturn/saturn20100423.wmv The SEB is still very dark. The NPR seems to be lightening up. It was very dark just a few weeks ago.
The Cassini Spacecraft will image the SED on April 29. I would like to request imagers to image the SED during this day!
