Jupiter from Melbourne last night May 17, 2019

First image for this apparition - nice to see Jove blazing away again this year - never really perfect seeing, but good enough to capture lots for details.

12.5" f/5 scope with ASI290mm camera.

Clear skies.

That is a very nice Jupiter, not a bad start for the season.

Just read a report on Spaceweather.com that Anthony Wesley as imaged Jupiters Red Spot shedding off strips of itself
https://spaceweatherarchive.com/2019...ot-unraveling/
Something to certainly keep tabs on, would be interesting to watch if the storm finally dissapates, we know that it has been shrinking for decades now.

Lots of detail John, I just seem to get above avg. The GRS is now really tiny compared with past observations.

Thanks John - good to see you imaging as well!!

Will just keep my thread going rather than start a new one.

Another earlier image from the 17th attached showing the GRS and then one from this morning in poor conditions which does show the developing situation around the GRS.
