Hi all.

I emailed Sylvain Rondi, the author of the fantastic Jupiter 2 (http://www.astrosurf.com/rondi/jupiter/index.htm) program, to ask him to include the Equatorial Diameter of Jupiter in the Parameters, and I received an email from him last night to say he's released a new version with that info.

Update Log here (http://www.astrosurf.com/rondi/jupiter/index.htm#updates), you can download the update zip file if you already have it installed.

If not, Download the full version here (http://www.astrosurf.com/rondi/jupiter/index.htm#telecharger).

Thanks to Sylvain for listening to community feedback - he's always been very responsive to suggestions by the IceInSpace community (Vindictive666 made several suggestions in the past).

If you haven't installed it or tried it yet, give it a go. It's great for predicting Jupiter transit events.

When you install it, just set the language and timezone offset, and save the parameters so it remembers them for next time.

Thanks Mike,:thumbsup:

That will take the guess work out of predicting Jovian events.

I don't know how Jupiter aficionados can manage without it. It is the first program I turn to if I want positional data about Jupiter its moons or the GRS
