This Hubble Space Telescope ultraviolet image of Saturn was taken when the planet's rings were at a maximum tilt of 27 degrees toward Earth. Saturn experiences seasonal tilts away from and toward the Sun, much the same way Earth does. This happens over the course of its 29.5-year orbit. This means that approximately every 30 years, Earth observers can catch their best glimpse of Saturn's south pole and the southern side of the planet's rings.
By examining the hazes and clouds present in this image, researchers can learn about the dynamics of Saturn's atmosphere. Scientists gain insight into the structure and gaseous composition of Saturn's clouds. For example, smaller aerosols are visible only in this ultraviolet image, because they do not scatter or absorb visible or infrared light, which have longer wavelengths.

Captured from Grand.MesaObservatory.com over 2 nights in October 2017 using the QHY367C CMOS camera on Walter's TAK 130 FSQ, 4 minute exposures were used for the color and 10 minute exposures were used for the H Alpha filter for a total integration time of 6.9 Hours.

Less than one hundred light years from the Orion Nebula lies the
aptly named Horsehead Nebula, another outcropping of the Orion
Molecular Cloud and one of the most recognizable assemblies in the
heavens. Whereas the Orion Nebula generates enough light to be
visible to the unaided eye, the Horsehead has a far lower surface
brightness and presents a challenge to visual observers even with
large telescopes. But it’s a delight for astrophotographers and arm-
chair stargazers.
The Horsehead complex lies just south of the brilliant blue supergi-
ant star Alnitak, the easternmost star in Orion’s Belt and just north of
the Orion Nebula. The glowing reddish-pink region in the back-
ground is cataloged by astronomers as IC 434. Like the Orion Neb-
ula, IC 434 is an emission nebula. It’s powered by the blazing-hot
star Sigma Orionis, just south of Alnitak. Much of the nebula is per-
meated by tenuous streaks caused by magnetic fields in the region.
Etched against the glowing IC 434 is the chess-piece outline of the
dark nebula Barnard 33 (B33). This is one of more than three hun-
dred dark clouds of gas and fine dust discovered by Edward Emer-
son Barnard, the prodigious and self-made American astronomer
who rose from abject poverty after the American Civil War to be-
come the most astute professional observer and astrophotographer
of the early 20th century. `
Dark nebulae are common in the Orion complex and throughout the
spiral arms of the Milky Way. But B33 lies in the foreground of the
reddish-pink emission nebula so it stands out as clearly as a burglar
in a brightly lit window. This dark nebula itself is an eddy of gas and
dust, swirling at some 20 km/s. Within the nebula, small pockets are
slowly collapsing to form more stars. But most of the nebula will be
blown away by the gentle but steady pressure of ultraviolet light
from massive new stars over the next 5 million years.
