The Hubble Space Telescope is in low-Earth orbit. What is the magnitude of stellar aberration induced by itsorbital motion?
The Readouts panel states that your field of
view is 1.22°. That means that you are looking
at a 1.22° diameter circular section of the night
sky. If the image of Saturn (without rings)
takes up about 4.25% of this field of view,
calculate the size (in degrees AND
arcseconds) of Saturn in the field of view.
