Saturns rings
It sure is.
in a 40x eyepiece it appears about the size of a pin head,however at 80x and up it is gorgeous.An 8 inch scope really brings it up.At 200x it appears about one half inch at arms length-still small but you can see the shadow of the planet on the rings as well as cassini division.Dont settle for some small scope get as large a one as possible use medium to high power 200-400x and enjoy! |
