The initial imagery from JWST's NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) is already fascinating researchers. Saturn itself appears extremely dark at this infrared wavelength observed by the telescope, as methane gas absorbs almost all of the sunlight falling on the atmosphere. However, the icy rings stay relatively bright. Credit: NASA/ESA/CSA/STScI/Andrea Luck

While Ganymede hasn’t been observed spewing plumes of #water vapor like #Saturn’s #Enceladus, Jupiter’s largest moon most likely hides an enormous #saltwater ocean. Hubble observations suggest the ocean—thought to sit under 150km (95mi) of ice—could be up to 100 km (60mi) deep. That’s 10 times deeper than the ocean on Earth. https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/11/jupiters-moon-ganymede-is-telling-us-more-about-its-alien-ocean/

Colliding Moons Might Have Created Saturn's Rings

A longstanding question about Saturn: are its rings new or old, and where did they come from? The icy material in Saturn's rings looks young, but it could be old and getting constantly resurfaced. But, new research suggests that they are indeed young and could have been formed from two icy moons that collided and shattered a few hundred million years ago. Researchers simulated 200 different versions of impacting moons and found many different versions that would scatter the icy particles into rings like what Saturn has today.

The Seasons on Saturn are Changing. It's Time to Say Goodbye to Its North Pole for a Few Years

Just like Earth, Saturn goes through seasons. But a year on Saturn lasts 30 years, so each of its seasons lasts 7.5 years. Right now, astronomers are able to image the planet's north pole, seeing the warm vortex storm that surrounds the region. Both ground, and space telescopes have observed the planet, including images from JWST's MIRI/MRS instruments. These observations are helping astronomers understand how the seasonal shift on Saturn affects the planet's climate.

Whether Saturn's Rings are Young or Old, its Moons are as Ancient as the Planet Itself

The age of Saturn's rings is an ongoing controversy among planetary scientists. They look young, but are they actually young or just being resurfaced by micrometeorite impacts? Scientists have asked a similar question about Saturn's icy moons, which could have formed with the planet or were captured icy objects from the outer solar system. A new study mapped impact craters on the surface of the moons and dated them back to nearly the beginning of the Solar System. No matter how young the rings are, Saturn's moons are old.

Six telescopic images of Saturn presented in a horizontal row. The clarity improves with each image. The leftmost are blurry, lacking in detail, and strangely coloured (orangey or dull yellow), as they get better, the colour gets more accurate with white rings, and light browns and yellows. The rings start very open, and get gradually more closed.

#Saturn #astrophotography #Astrodon

Telescopic view of Saturn. Planet centered, 'north up' view. Appearing as a large disk with horizontal bands, dark-ish brown at the top of the planet, pale yellow around the equator and bluer, dusky yellow in the south. The rings are white, and the Cassini Division appearing as a black line within them. Due to the rings being quite 'closed' the Cassini division is not visible in front of the planet, only on either side,

The #Nintendo64 & #SegaSaturn cores for #MiSTer are coming along so nicely I'm super excited! I've never owned (or really played for that matter) an N64 so it'll be nice to discover that. Glad I picked up the N64 controller recently to use with it!

Took out the telescope last night. The moon was so bright I almost didn't find Saturn which was nearby, but I managed! #astrophotography #moon #saturn #supermoon

Planet season is coming back! Was up at Tahoe this past weekend and managed to get a good look at Saturn!
It's not in an ideal position for viewing yet, but it was good enough to snag this picture

Taken with a ZWO ASI224MC on an 8 inch Dobsonian telescope with a 2x barlow. The effective magnification was around 265x and no tracking was used, so the frames were captured over a dozen or so recording sessions back to back where I'd position the telescope, let Saturn track across the sensor window.

Each recording session only lasted about 15s before Saturn would leave the sensor frame.
The final image was processed from around 1,000 frames using AutoStakkert, then finished in GIMP.

You can make out some cloud bands and even the Cassini Division (that's the gap between the outer-most ring and the inner ring sections).

Hopefully later in the season when Saturn is at opposition I can grab an even higher quality version!

I don't use FB much but I do find its memories feature pretty useful sometimes. It reminded me that I posted took this picture of Saturn exactly 10 years ago. And the next picture is one I took of Saturn last night. I'm not done processing it yet! I'll post that later. 🔭🪐

Quartet of Ringed Gas Giants: #Jupiter, #Saturn, #Uranus, and #Neptune

Full size image 7140x4017, more info and link to single HD images: https://flic.kr/p/2oUkYSY

With this portrait I wanted to have them approx. in scale, I've used a reference image to do so - don't expect 100% accuracy on that ;)

I took this picture of #Saturn with my telescope last night from my frontyard in Purmerend, the Netherlands.

Imaging the planets is only a wee bit addictive 🥰 I do really need some extra sleep now.

Ich hatte mich kurz gewundert, wieso ich noch kein #Saturn Nutzerkonto hatte. Jetzt erinnere ich mich. Weil Saturn (und Media Markt) absolut peinliche Passwortrichtlinien hat…
Ich bezweifle stark, dass bei denen die Passwörter in der Datenbank gehashed sind… 🤮🤡

Ein Screenshot der Registrierungsseite vom Elektronikhändler Saturn. Zu sehen ist das ausgefüllte Passwortfeld, unter dem Feld stehen die Passwortanforderung. Die einzige nicht erfüllte Anforderung ist, dass das Passwort nicht länger als 15 Zeichen ist. Aufgrund dessen bezeichnet die Webseite das Passwort als unsicher.

Images taken this morning from my backyard in Purmerend, the Netherlands: #Jupiter with the Great Red Spot and #Saturn. #astrodon #astrophotography

The planet Jupiter, a brownish orb with light and dark stripes and an orange oval that we call the great red spot a little bottom left of the center.
The planet Saturn with the rings. The planet is yellowish brown and the rings are seen fairly edge-on.

Poster #1: Sun, Mercury, Venus. Surfaces from the Inner Solar System (Venus, Luna, Earth, Mars), and Earth-Crossing Asteroids.

Poster #2: Earth, Luna, Mars, selected Belt Asteroids, including Ceres & Vesta. Insets show Phobos & Deimos, and additional asteroids.

The bar across the top shows the relative scales of the planets to each other (and are also to the same scale as the Sun on Poster #1).

They are NOT positioned to orbital scale, as all the inner solar system would be bunched up on the 1st poster and I wanted the posters to work as standalones as well as forming a polyptych.

They are about 48x68cm (19x27in) each, printed a heavy poster paper (like cover stock or photo paper) with a gloss coat. The printing is gorgeous -- I was very happy with these!
Poster #3: Jupiter and its moons. Features the Galilean moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto, including closeups of their surfaces and a NASA concept art regarding Europa's oceans. Insets cover Jupiter's Trojan Asteroids and notable comets.

Poster #4: Saturn and its moons. Features Titan and the Huygens landing, with an aerial image of the river system and the one surface image. Insets cover the rings, venting on Enceladus, smaller moons, and the "centaur" minor planets.

Poster #5: Uranus/Moons, Neptune/Moons including Triton with its geysers, Pluto/Moons including Charon, Kuiper Belt / Trans-Neptunian Objects. A telescopic image of Eris.

These were created in 2018, originally for my teen daughter's bedroom. They are each 19x27" (48x68cm), so as a polyptych, they take up about 8ft / 2.4m of wall. But they are composed so they work just as well spread around -- such as in a school hallway or classroom.
