You're welcome, Brent. Now's the best time to look for Enke's minima. I have never seen it (or them) with conviction, although I've heard of it having been seen in 12.5" scopes. The minima are about as visible as the "spokes" in the B Ring (although of different form); in other words, not very. Large aperture and an excellent night are needed. Brent, if you haven't sold that 22-inch yet, it's the perfect scope for Ring-scrutiny. This is just a personal thought, but if you had a large enough aperture, a polarizing filter might affect visibility. Chuck --- Brent Watson <brentjwatson@yahoo.com> wrote:
Thanks, Chuck. I didn't know that. Brent
