" Imaging Saturn remains difficult as the planet is very low on our southern horizon in Lowestoft. The location of the moons: Titan, Dione and Rhea was easy to achieve but Tethys and Enceladus, being close and therefore lost in the glare from Saturn, required the position of the moons to be estimated using planetarium software. Saturn is probably one of the most beautiful astronomical objects to be viewed through the eyepiece of a telescope." - Karl Seguine Community Outreach Coordinator at the Jodrell Plank Observatory.
