Here you can see difference betwen professionals and very amateur job biggrin I've tried some times ago to do such a panoramic (well, a small part) from the RGB raw files, huge vigneting issues as you can see..

Another abandoned try :


Another Target in a small homemade animation, tracking Daphnis, you can briefly see waves in motion :

Observations of Saturn's rings around equinox revealed ejecta streams which indicate meteoroid impacts with the rings. Saturn's rings - with 100 times the surface area of Earth - can thus act as a giant meteoroid detector helping us to characterize the small object population in the Solar system.
