Nice, now I want the next to look like the second that you posted of Jupiter!

I never saw the cassini division. I had my scope for a bunch of years when the rings were closer to edge-on. My binoculars at 20x60 will show the bands on Jupiter, moons for Jupiter and Saturn, and the gaps between the rings and Saturn, but not the division at least, not that I've ever been able to see.
