Saturn at Opposition from Sun - June 2-3

Saturn and its magnificent rings are approaching opposition from the Sun during the night of June 2-3. The planet will be out all night, and the rings especially will reach a sharp peak in brilliance during that time due to the lack of visible shadowing by particles upon each other.

My more detailed article along with graphics related to this year’s apparition can be found at: http://ift.tt/1bYnFKR

Those graphics were created in association with PowerBASIC and its associated Graphics Tools.

Photos and descriptions of Saturn and its rings would be welcome additions to this thread.
