   How do you see Saturn?

   • The best way to view Saturn is to use a backyard telescope, or a strong pair of stargazing binoculars, so you can see Saturn's rings in sharp relief. Because Saturn is nearing opposition, it will be in the opposite part of the sky as the setting Sun. On Sept. 7 and 8, Saturn will appear in the constellation Aquarius.

The best way to view Saturn is to use a backyard telescope, or a strong pair of stargazing binoculars, so you can see Saturn's rings in sharp relief.

   Can you see Saturn without a ring?

   • Just as it was in 2009, Saturn will appear, from our perspective, very close to the sun in the sky, largely obscured by the light of the star. For a truly clear view of Saturn “without” its signature rings, skywatchers and scientists will have to wait until 2038 and 2039, which will have three ring plane crossings.

   How far can a telescope see Saturn?

   • How far a telescope can see depends on a range of factors. Since Saturn is about 845 million miles from Earth at its closest, the best telescope for seeing the rings of Saturn with extra resolution is naturally going to be the one that can gather the most light. That means choosing a telescope with as much aperture as possible.
