Imaging from 02.09.2026. I captured simultaneously with C9.25 and C11.

At the limit of visibility, I managed to resolve the shadow transit of Tethys. The shadow is visible at the very edge of the northeastern part of the planet's disk. Tethys itself is slightly to the left and above. It resolved better on the C11. Also visible in the animation is a large equatorial storm.
