After

almost a

year (

days missing)

in

which

I have not

turned

my telescope on the

planet

March 29, 2011

now I'm

back

with

some

images

made

​​on

March 24, 2012

with the same

telescope,

but

another

camera

Above,

are

captures

in

Splash

Player

and

below are v ideo

captures

in

Sony

Vegas

10

where you can

save

the image

that you think

is

worth to be

saved

Naturally

I wanted

to shoot

Saturn

on

April 15, 2012

when it

was

in

opposition

but

shot

earlier and

I'm glad I

did

because

this planet

during the

opposition

time

was

bad to see

Saturn

is

the outermost

planet

of the five

planets

visible

with

the naked eye

in the sky

four being

Mercury

Mars and and

Saturn

is

seen

with

the naked eye

as

a yellowish bright spot

Most

observers

will need

large

optics

and

binoculars

or

a telescope

in

order to increase

by at

least 20

×

to observe

Saturn

Saturn

and

its rings

are

best

seen

when the

planet

is

at

the

opposition

An opposition

occurs

when a

planet

is

at

an elongation

of 180

°

and

thus

appears

opposite to the Sun

in the sky

When

I shot

the planet

was

at

a low angle

horizon

but

I never

thought

I'll see

this

good and

clearly

because I thought

that

air

pollution

will block

it's observation

These

images

were taken

through the telescope

last

before I

gather

the equipment

and leave

the field

due to

cold weather
