yeah you would definately be able to see it in ur telescope. Urs is 0.5" larger in apperture (diameter of the scopes mirror) meaning it will even be slightly brighter. you're a bit confused, the focal length of ur scope is 650mm. The 130mm u got is what 5" converts to in inches lol so the 5" and 130mm are the same things. So ur telescope is a 5" (130mm) with a 650 mm Focal length. It should say on the box u got or w/e ur telescope came with, that its Focal length is 650mm
Also, Saturn is in the South-eastern skies at around 10:30 local time. The rings will be small and not as great as they usually are, since the planet is kind of turned at an angle. This happens lkie every 15 years or w/e that the planet does that, making the rings look like they disappear. In summer, they will have completely "disappeared" but in a year or two, I think they'll be good again
What size eyepieces do you have? I'm guessing you have a 10mm and 20mm which came with the scope? If you do, those eyepieces give you 32.5X and 65X. In this video I used 100X so it did make a difference. My old camera (I used for this vid) was kind of crappy, and it made objects smaller, so saturn was slightly smaller in the actual view. My advice is to buy a 2X barlow lense, which can be pretty cheap (i got a 17.5mm eyepiece and a 2X barlow for 30 bucks lol).
The 2X barlow with ur 10mm will give u 130X which will help a lot. That means you have 4 choices to chose and just use whatever gives the best view. You have powers of 32.5X, 65X, another 65X, and 130X. I got a new scope recently (8" dobsonian) and it was the same price as my 4.5" but the views are much btter). I use 240X on Saturn and the image is perfect. Check out my other video of Saturn, it was kind of fuzzy in the cameras view though.
Thanks, I was using a 4.5" Celestron reflecting telescope. I just got a new camera which has alot more zoom so I can get a larger view of saturn on tape from now on. Thanks for subscribing!
Yeah, it's 114mm and srry it was shaky, holdin the camera up to the eyepiece, refocusin it every now and then, as well as the planet driftin is a bit hard. I'm gettin a barlow to double my view by two, so i'll take some vids and try to keep the camera from shaking. Thanks :)

Nice job. By the way, what type of telescope did you use when filming Saturn? Just curious.
