Comments: Imaged Saturn May 22nd in good seeing, the best I have had thus far this apparition, targeting a CM transit of the Lat-55 bright spot. Have data covering 1 hr 51 min’s of Saturn rotation. I was able to stack 70 to 80% of all 685nm IR frames, 80% of the R channel, 80% of the G channel, 70 to 80% of the B channel and 100% of the CH4 frames. Small scale detail resolved by wavelength. 685nm IR A dark spot is resolved in the NTrB at approx Lat+32.1 L3 19.2 best seen in the data from 20:16 and 20:36 UTC. A v-thin bright band is resolved mid NEB with a compact bright spot in it at approx Lat+18 L3 16.5. A quite intriguing structure is resolved within the EZ consisting of a bright feature at approx Lat+3.3 L1 166 this precedes a prominent dark vertical feature centered on approx L3 175.9.This feature is very reminiscent of a similar feature I found in July 2014 and tracked through 2015 and 2016 which resulted in a paper in Nature Communications that was published on my birthday in 2016. Two compact bright spots rotated into view and are seen in the final two IR data sets at 20:16 and 20:36 UTC. These Southern hemisphere spots are just below the ring shadow at approx Lat-20.7 L3 29.4 and Lat-22 L3 19.2. The transit of the Lat-55 spot is well covered by these data and I measure it to be at approx Lat-55 L3 327.9 its easterly drift remains consistent at approx 3.2 L3 degrees / day. R channel data Resolves the previously mentioned thin bright band and bright spot in the NEB along with the dark and bright features in the EZ. R data also resolves a compact bright spot in the EZ at approx Lat+10.9 L1 209. A very thin bright band is resolved mid SEB along with a compact bright spot at approx Lat-31.8 L3 10.6 RGB data Resolves the previously mentioned thin bright band and bright spot in the NEB along with the dark and bright feature in the EZ and compact bright EZ spot. CH4 data Resolves a v-bright thin band in the EZ centered on approx Lat+1.2 extending 70 degrees from L1 223 to L1 153
