The extraordinary seeing conditions〓I had for Jupiter the night before last,were also manifest for Saturn.
At last this season,the conditions allowed resolution of fine detail on the planet's surface.〓
There is a very distinct〓small white storm cell in the NTrZ on the f side of the meridian,
and interestingly it is much more easily discerned〓in the RGB image.
I made a blink animation to compare the detail visible in IR versus RGB.
The Hexagonal Polar Vortex,also seems to be a different size in IR versus RGB.
The turquoise〓blue of what we can see of the southern〓hemisphere is amazing.
