Moon shadows on Jupiter tonight

I will check out Io and Europa's shadows on Jupiter tonight. Io's shadow is normally easier to view. Europa forms the least distinct shadow of the big 3 inner Moons. They will be both visible between 8.30 and 9.30 tonight.

Re tracking Saturn's Moons: This has proved difficult, mainly coz of the weather. I also missed last weeks 2-shadow event because of rain.

The good news is that there is also a 2-shadow event next Friday (16/6) but at aprox 11pm.
