Just noticed Joop next to the moon this morning.
It is placed exactly one thumbs width at arms length (tech term here) to the north of the moon.
Happy hunting!:thumbsup:

Thanks Matt - first clear skies in Christchurch this morning for a while. Jupiter is high in the eastern sky here and although the seeing isn't great, I could see two equatorial cloud bands and watched Europa rising from behind the limb - a great sight.

Yesterday morning it was a nice pairing.. the seeing just wasn't very good :(
Out there again this morning but again the seeing was terrible. Europa sure did look nice coming out from behind Jupiter.
