Comments: Imaged Saturn December 12th, seeing was unstable. The lower Saturn drops in the west the more turbulence in the column of air I image through as heat energy from the desert radiates back up into the atmosphere. Have only 685nm IR data, some low contrast detail is resolved within the EZ and can be seen in the animation and polar map.
