Jupiter event

http://www.iceinspace.com.au/calenda...de=view&id=264

Hi guys and gals........set the alarm and watch ganymede come out from behind Jupiter whilst calisto merrily goes the other way.

Astrocalc shows the GRS transitting around them too.

It might be 40 degrees, so....................maybe some images may be possible.

Any predictions for what the GRS will look like this year????

Thanks for the information David

Unfortunately for Brisbane observers, the Sun will be above the horizon by 6:00am on the 12th

It's not looking good for the event. I have got clouds coming in from all directions.

Hopefully it will clear up in the morning. If not I will try again at the end of the month.
