Saturn with Six Moon

I captured this view of Saturn surrounded by six moons on Thursday morning, July 6, 2017 at Frosty Drew Observatory. Visible moons in order of brightness, starting with brightest, are: Titan, Rhea, Dione, Tethys, Enceladus, and Iapetus. Saturn is a maximum tilt towards the Sun, placing the top side of the rings at best viewing in a 30 year period.
