I've put it on my calendar to attempt on November 15, 2025 in the early evening in my 24". I've got a Televue 10.5 (315x) with a Tuttle Solar Skreen occulting half the FOV. Mars moon eyepiece. On that date and time, it will be off the rings which will be edge on. There will be no other "bright" satellites nearby. Might be an interesting time to attempt it. Unfortunately, our seeing in SE Texas is not very good in November, but with some more "Climate Change" who knows. LOL Thanks Greg for your input.

This observation had similar circumstances but the observer admits most likely not seen as he may have had Mimas nearby. Unless his time of observation was close to 3:35CST when Janus would have been max from center of Saturn (25") and 4.3" from Mimas.
