Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then. If the more I know, the more I know I don’t know, then do I truly know what I know because I know I don’t? You cannot reach a correct conclusion if you begin with an incorrect assumption |

User ID: 81887960 United States 06/18/2022 10:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Here's a quick clip I shot of Saturn this morning through the 11" telescope. Here's the full resolution stacked image: [link to drive.google.com (secure)] Saturn's largest moon Titan can be seen in the upper right. One of the creepiest planets. Cool, but creepy. |

Quoting: sseess But I have seen it through a telescope at the University of Colorado, and it looked fake then, too! and i have seen it thru mine too and it looks real.. what is this garbage? I have seen it through a telescope too, and it did not look fake, but it did not look real either. It looked unreal. Fantastic. How could something so strange exist?

I suggest everyone view the stacked image w/Saturn and its moon Titan at the googledrive url given by Astro: [link to drive.google.com (secure)] . Astro - I bet Saturn is stunning through an eyepiece in your new scope. Years ago I blew my neighbor's kids minds showing them Saturn in my small refractor. It was very beautiful with the rings/Cassini Division clearly visible. It's amazing how the eye/brain combo compensates for poorer seeing and produces a stable, sharp, colorful image in your brain. . Have fun and thanks. 5 stars. R.

User ID: 82254953 Czechia 06/19/2022 07:32 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is really cool. Now I'm wondering. If Saturn is roughly 863 million miles away...what is the delay time from what you see in the telescope vs. real time? If light travels 186K miles a second....wait I think I can figure this out. 863,000,000m/ 186,000m/s = 4,640 seconds or like 77 minutes. Quoting: AfterAll So correct me if I'm wrong. What you are viewing actually happened 77 minutes prior on Saturn? Enough time to cut the signal if something goes off |

If you can pick up Saturn that clearly with your telescope...then show us details and closeups of the moon. Since it's far closer, you ought to have some fantastic images of some major close up details, right? I hope to see zoomed in photos of the moon real soon!! Thanks! |
