Video astro Saturn planet in my Newtonian telescope

Processed images of these clips are here: Ringed planet Saturn photographed by astronomical telescope .

   The average distance between Saturn and the Sun is over 1.4 billion km (9 AU). With an average orbital speed of 9.69 km / s Saturn needs 10.759 days (or about 29 years and a half), to complete one revolution around the sun.
    Elliptical orbit of Saturn is inclined 2.48 ° relative to the Earth's orbital plane. Because of eccentricity of 0056. the distance between Saturn and the Sun varies by about 155,000,000 km between perihelion and aphelion, wich is the closest and most distant planet in its orbit along the way.







The above clips were edited and ready to be loaded onto youtube since summer 2011, but waited their turn, now in 2012. I will shoot Saturn with Sony's new CX130 cam, to see what quality have. For now, this Saturn is the best shot until now.
