Comments: Imaged Saturn April 21st covering 71 minutes of Saturn rotation and have captured a transit of Tethys. In these data I note a series of v-low contrast bright spots extending across the entire SEB. Also I note a bright extended linear feature in the SEB which is comprised of a series of bright Spots, these are very close together with the lead spot at approx Lat-31.6 L3 98.8 with the whole series extending back to approx L3 118. My best data both here and from April 22nd (still working on that) when zoomed resolves at least five separate compact spots within this feature. These data also resolve a low contrast bright spot at approx Lat-55 L3 69.1, this spot was previously resolved in my April 2nd data.
