As usual by the time I got home Saturn was nearly obscured by the haze, but I caught a few moments’ worth of a shimmering, unfocused view. It’s a thrill no matter what! I loved the first view we had tonight … Io looks almost like “Bubble Rock” balancing on the edge of the planet! Tonight we had the sharpest, steadiest view of the bands we’ve had yet.
