Doc Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I was just looking through my observing notes to see if I have seen Triton the moon of Neptune when I stumbled on a note I made a long time ago detailing what moons I have seen, all of these in my 16" dob. Mars:- No moons seen Saturn: - Titan, Enceladus, Rhea, Dione, Mimas, Lapetus, Thethys, and Hyperion Jupiter:- Europa, Io, Ganymede, and Calistro Uranus:- Titania, and Oberon Neptune:- Triton So 15 moons in total. How many have you guys seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithysteve Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 You are doing well Martin! i did see this post of Micks sooner, but don't have too much to contribute... i have only seen the Galilean moons, + Titan, Tethys, Rhea and Dione. I think I got a glimpse Enceladus too. So that's 9, but my bucket list is growing nicely! I get so many ideas from this forum. What to look at... what to spend my money on! So much to do, so few chances to do it it seems... cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I've seen 9: 4 of Saturn's 4 of Jupiter's plus one of ours. I've got some plans to catch Jupiter's on "film" and maybe Titan. I've got the DSLR to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
