Orin writes "Saturn reaches opposition January 27, the peak of its current apparition. It then lies closest to Earth, 755 million miles away....
You can spot it easily among the faint stars of Cancer the Crab. Throughout the month, Saturn lies in the same binocular field as the prominent Beehive star cluster (M44). This spectacular chance alignment gives observers an added treat.
Equipment used: Celestron C-11 telescopes, ToUcam Pro 2 PC webcam, and 2.8x Barlow lens for 376 combined frames
