Hi guys
Get on out and check out Jupiter tonight if you can.
Ganymede and Callisto and very close together on the West side of Jupiter, and Europe and Io are very close together on the East side of Jupiter.
A great pair of conjunctions, well worth checking out.
The seeing is "ok" around these parts tonight, not great but not horrible.

Thanks for the heads up Mike, but I just popped my head outside the window to be greeted by patchy cloud!
Cheers

Just been having a look from Brisbane (in between the clouds). Nice view. Definately worth a look!

All cloud here in S.A., so good luck to you eastern chaps.

Seeing has improved quite a bit - it's a shame the moons aren't closer to Jupiter.

Yes. The weather here in Brisbane is again spoiling the party:(

At first I thought there was fault in the new optics, some sort of reflection.
It was cool
