Abstract

We present a list of 203 potential occultations by Saturn and its rings of stars from the Hubble Space Telescope Guide Star Catalog (GSC), during the years 1991-1999. Because the GSC is not a complete catalog, this is not an exhaustive list of Saturn occultations. In particular, stars brighter than magnitude 8 are not included. However, this list does include many fainter candidates than do current occultation candidate lists for Saturn; these fainter stars also can provide a high signal-to-noise ratio if observed with a large telescope or in the infrared where Saturn and its rings have absorption bands. We list the occultation circumstances, as well as star information found in the GSC.
