Our good friend and contributor Damian Peach of Selsey, England, continues to wow the astronomical world with his incredible astroimages, week by week. When he recently sent an image he shot of Saturn on July 8, 2013, I thought this has to be shared. What a phenomenal picture!

When he shot it, Saturn measured 17.46 arcseconds across its equator and was some 25° above the horizon, at 20:37 UT.

Wow!!
