Just playing with trying to reproduce the EP view. Based on a recent sketch:

Jupiter in bad seeing.

Jay,

Fun animation of your sketches. Thanks for sharing!

Jay,

That turned out very nice and most realistic.

Jay,

Thank you for the animation on what Jupiter (or any planet) would like like when viewing under poor seeing conditions. Your skills in animation are very helpful to us all. Is it possible to make the animation a little bigger? It looks small on my my screen, but I can still enjoy the animation.

Carlos

Carlos, I kept it small because that's usually the size I see it!

It didn't look right larger as the sketch didn't have the detail needed to make it look somewhat realistic. - j
