Saturn: A Narrower Ring Tilt
“Crisp rings noticeably narrower than the 2022 captures, as Saturn's rings continue closing toward edge-on.”
By the end of 2023, Saturn’s rings have visibly narrowed compared to the wide-open views from 2022, part of the multi-year progression toward the edge-on appearance the rings will reach later in this collection. This capture is crisp and well-exposed, with good tonal balance between rings and globe.
Captured as a single video and stacked in AutoStakkert!3, then processed in PixInsight.
