We present optical depth profiles for Saturn's rings at wavelengths of 0.9, 2.1, 3.3, and 3.9 ยตm, obtained from the occultation of the star 28 Sgr on 3 July 1989 when the rings were near their maximum opening angle. The radial resolution of the data is โผ18 km, as set by the angular diameter of the s
Adaptive optics (0.15 resolution) infrared images of the rings and satellites of Saturn were obtained in August 1995 as the Earth was crossing the ring plane. Twelve clumps were detected in the F ring, including HST S5 and S7 objects. For the first time H magnitudes were obtained for Prometheus, Pan
