It was the first night of good seeing we've had in about two months. Boy has Jupiter grown since then. When I first put my 18mm eyepiece in and saw the GRS and Io transit in place, my jaw about dropped. I can say it was the best view I have ever seen...so 3 dimensional looking to see Io popping out in front of Jupiter. It will be a Thanksgiving morning to remember. I had a hard time putting the eyepiece away but was rewarded with some great imaging time. I've been traveling all day so this was edited on my laptop in the car...but I think it turned out well. This was taken at 8:24UT with the C14 flea3. Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving. It's been a tough year for me but I still have plenty to be thankful for! Thanks for looking Post Extras:       Tapio Pooh-Bah Reged: 09/24/06 Loc: Tampere, Finland Re: Jupiter and Io 11-22-12 in Good Seeing [Re: Hillbrad]       #5534712 - 11/23/12 01:24 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Sure is one of the best (ground based) images of Jupiter I've seen.
