Image Details:

This week I was able to capture the moon and Saturn in one frame at 200mm. In order to be able to see Saturn I had to make a composite. I took the moon as I saw it and edited the video of Saturn and shrunk it down to size to show how it would look if we were actually able to see Saturn without the telescope. We are able to see Saturn as a bright object in the sky naked eye but not the physical shape of it.
