                                 Abstract
This proposal is for far-UV imaging of Saturn's auroral emissions in the H
Ly alpha (1216 Angstrom) and H_2 Lyman and Werner bands (900-1650
Angstrom) with WFPC2. In cycle 5 the geometry will be appropriate to image
the south aurora for the first time. We will observe Saturn in two
separate visits, to measure variations in the morphology of the auroral
emissions expected to arise from changes in the driving mechanisms, such
as with respect to magnetic longitude, intrinsic temporal variations,
Saturnian satellites or solar wind parameters.
