Well, I spent a wonderful 6.5 hours on Jupiter last night, and as a result I was able to make the following map. The map covers a half rotation of the planet and extends from longitudes CM2: 145 to 327. Best wishes, -Paul. Post Extras:       Chopin Canis Insanus Reged: 02/03/05 Loc: In the doghouse.

[Re: astronz59]       #5560498 - 12/08/12 08:08 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Paul, Terrific drawing! I like seeing all those features in context like that. One example: the prominent, dark, roiling appearance of the STB following the GRS gradually diminishing and dulling. Also, congratulations on 6.5 hours of continuous clear weather.
