Seeing very poor at 3/10
The seeing once again only supported decent resolution in infrared.
Included are a number of different near infrared spectra, and a false colour composite composed of IR850 longpass, IR642 bandpass, and Red which makes for easier visualisation of the differences in each spectrum. The rings are highly reflective of IR850, but the disc absorbs a great deal of light in that range, as evidenced by the narrow band methane image where the disc is almost invisible.
