Hah, yes I thought soo, and was just thinking that it was one very early morning some years ago I seen a rather steady clear Jupiter, Hence everything local probably cooled down by then & this may be a consideration for the future. Great in the main sense but now need getting out cozy warm bed from now on
But indeed many thanx Bojan, this is great additional info I wasn't too sure about.
Cheers
