Ring Binoculars



Ring Binoculars
Approximately how powerful would binoculars need to be to resolve planets?

Sorry I’m not being very specific, but can you tell me roughly how powerful binoculars would have to be to:

1) See that Jupiter is an orangy colour and see it’s major satellites.

2) Resolve Saturn’s rings.

3) See good detail on Mars.

And just in general see significant detail on planets, (not too significant, just so a planet doesn’t look all one colour).

1. You can see Jupiter’s satellites with seven power binoculars. 50 mm objectives are a good size. The orange color isn’t apparent unless you take a photo. With a stronger set of binoculars you could distinguish the cloud belts, but they are brown appearing.

2. Basically you need at least 25X to see the rings. You’ll probably need a little more now since the rings are not tilted very much, but will improve slightly over the next couple months.

3. This one depends on the size of the objective. With binoculars you won’t see details on Mars, unless you have binocular telescopes.
