Here's my photo of Jupiter and Saturn tonight, the closest they've been in 800 years. [1]

Jupiter's moons, left to right, are Callisto, Ganymede, Io, and Europa. A dim star is coincidentally near Ganymede.

Saturn's moons, going counterclockwise from left, are Rhea, Tethys, Dione, and Titan.

This was taken with a 9.25" (that means wide) Celestron telescope with a 2350mm focal length and an ASI 1600mm monochrome camera, with separate filters for clear, red, green, and blue.

I took 50 frames of RGB, at 20ms per frame, and 12 frames of clear at 200 ms.

Jupiter, Saturn, and the five brightest moons are from the RGB. The three dimmer moons of Saturn from the clear, brightness jacked way up.

You can see Jupiter's Great Red Spot.

Many of the most interesting worlds in the solar system are in this shot, the subjects of several past, present, and future space missions. We may find the first signs of extraterrestrial life among the worlds in this photo. Saturn's moon Enceladus is too dim to appear.

They will be about this close tomorrow night, too, and you can see Jupiter without a telescope, shortly after sunset. Saturn will be a little above it.

Science is real. Education is what elevates us above the beasts. Celebrate it and enjoy the beauty.
