Help Finding Janus
#7
Phil,

I am not aware that it has ever been observed visually. Its too close to the rings. I have not found any evidence of it ever being imaged by amateurs either. As far as I can tell the old ground based observations were sparse, required a large aperture refractor, excellent seeing, and some sort of chronograph. This isn't so much about aperture, but being technically difficult. Some sort of modern lucky imaging campaign might work.
Clear skies,
Greg
