The Ringed Planet

17 Noviembre 2005

Coming up in January, Saturn will be at opposition, appearing at its largest in the skies of Earth.

This image of Saturn and its moon Titan (lower right) was taken during the Kitt Peak Advanced Observing Program, using a set of stacked images from a Web cam on the Kitt Peak Visitor Center 20-inch telescope.
