What do Jupiter and Saturn Look Like Through a Telescope?

In October of 2023 I travelled to Soneva Fushi in the Maldives where they have an amateur observatory with a 14" telescope.

While I was there I wanted to try and capture what Jupiter and Saturn look like to your eyes when you look down the telescope. I managed to attach my camera to the back of the telescope and was amazed at what I captured.


I was invited to Soneva Fushi discoversoneva to give stargazing tours to guests at the observatory in the evenings and had a wonderful trip, the trip was gifted in exchange for the stargazing evenings,I was not required to make this video but wanted to anyway!
