Jupiter rotation movie to bring out Io during shad
      #2555525 - 08/01/08 11:39 PM Attachment (5 downloads)

I hand-aligned the 7 frames of this movie in Adobe to see if my images caught Io in the transit from July 30th

Here's the movie of Jupiter rotating

and an even faster version of it

I previously posted this shot which showed the shadow at:

and I saw that other people online had posted images of Io from the same night/transit, and I was wondering if I had caught it too (with the shadow so prominent, it was curiously missing (or camouflaged) in mine, but in the animation if one looks in the red cloud band at the end of the animation one might barely make it out (notice it's moving at a different speed than Jupiter's rotation :^)

A jillion frames of video from the Canon Powershot A530 point-n-shoot camera scrunched down to 7 frames using Registax 4, Roxio Photosuite 5, Adobe PhotoDeluxe and GIF Construction Set Professional, 6" Criterion newtonian scope, AFOCAL! at the eyepiece of a Parks Gold Series 7.5 mm, no barlow used.

Thanks for looking, regards Jason H.
