You really don't appreciate how quickly the earth spins untill you are trying to track something in space.

This may be a stupid question. But, when I view Saturn through my telescope, it seems to move. Like in this video. But when I keep it fixed on a star, it doesn't move! O.o Is it because of Saturn's orbit, or am I just tripping?
-
@emgee65 - I'm going to be a pedantic pain, LINYVideo isn't moving much. Sure LINY is on Earth which is moving in orbit and spinning on its axis, but Saturn is also moving in orbit and spinning on its axis, our solar system is also moving as is our our star system and everything else. In the whole, LINY is probably the one of the stillest elements in the equation. I'm feeling a bit motion sick...

@verticalsmurf Thats right! .... I dont appreciate it cos it makes it so damn hard for those without goto mounts to keep an object in FOV. ^^)
-
@ShawnPaw100 Its you thats moving , not Saturn.
The earth spins at around 1675 kmh at the equator.
-
Yes because of the orbit, and since you looking with a telescope at something thats is very far away you can actually see that we are orbiting!
-
UFO-FAKE :D
-
why does it keep moving? why dont you just steady the telescope? is it because of the orbit?
-
@MsHolli09 actually you can, just get a very dark place, a far from city place, and an OK telescope, in a saturn night and you will get it :)
-
you cant see saturn that clearly on earth no matter what telescope you use

what telescope did u use?
archannjus88 2 years ago
Celestron 8" refractor. The telescope is better than this video. I was at a bad location, viewing under poor conditions. You want to view with low humidity, high pressure rotation center overhead and as many feet above sea level as possible. Winter nights are best. As you can see, if you can afford to add a motor to your scope, buy one.

Celestron 8" is rather a reflector.

Thanks, I used the wrong word.

What type of telescope is this filmed with?

Celestron 8" Reflector. The scope is much better than this video. Bad viewing conditions. I couldn't get equilibrium.
