I just checked Cartes du Ciel, which isn't too terribly accurate in regards to GRS and moon transits, but it looks like it will begin around 03:00 UT.

Also Ganymede transits from 6:58pm - 10:25pm. Of course I'm going to be inside due to tropical storm Eduardo, who has wrecked my plans to image two transiting moons.

Been partly to mostly cloudy all day! We'll see! Thanks Joel for the heads up. Naw, I confess, this has been on my mind for the past 4 days! Double transit, WHOOO! :P Mike -------------------- New home: http://maphilli14.multiply.com/ Older Astro Photos: http://picasaweb.google.com/maphilli14 HowTo: Planetary Processing Routine v7 http://maphilli14.multiply.com/journal/item/37/Michael_A._Phillips_Planetary_Processing_Routine_version_7.0 Post Extras:       Lunatiki Pooh-Bah Reged: 08/07/05 Posts: 1252 Loc: Amarillo, TX Re: Callisto transits Jupiter tonight [Re: Mike Phillips]       #2560376 - 08/04/08 08:22 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Conditions here are looking good. Not sure if I can get the whole transit though. The late hours have been taking a toll! -------------------- Mars Watch All images taken with: Celestron NexStar 8i SCT DBK 21AF04.AS K3ccd/Registax4/PSP8 ALPO Member #4287 Post Extras:       solshaker Pooh-Bah Reged: 06/06/06 Posts: 1305 Re: Callisto transits Jupiter tonight [Re: Lunatiki]       #2560600 - 08/04/08 10:06 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   im clouded in here, so im counting on you guys. -------------------- My Gallery Post Extras:       Pages: 1 Previous   Index   Next   Threaded   Extra information 8 registered and 19 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
