Left: February 24, 2001. 2255 CET. Composite of a stack of 100 images (Saturn) and a stack of 50 images (moons). The overexposed Saturn on the image of the moon was replaced with the correctly exposed image. Visible are: Dione, Rhea, Titan and star 1238 25 from the Hubble Guide Star Catalog. Tethys should be visible close to the rings to the right of the planet, but was probably not visible because of the overexposed Saturn in the image of the moons. QuickCam VC on Vixen NP R-114S.
