Jupiter

[Troy]

Hi
Just been experimenting with some data collected on the 18th August. Wesley’s impact mark is still visible!
:D



Scope: 235mm sct
Camera: Skynyx 2-0

I would like to hear your comments

That is an awesome animation! Yours?

Wow – excellent work Troy, a superb and very interesting animation.

Cheers

Looking good Troy,

Hans Mettig has been producing lots of Polar projections from various imagers data but I haven't seen it done as an animation. If I ever get through my backlog of Jupiter data I would love to set aside some time to learn how to do this.

Cheers
Trevor

Thanks all for your comments
Quark when time allows I want to combine some old pictures of Wesley's impact site (WIS) with the recent stuff I have. I used the same program I think as Hans which is WinJupos to do the polar projections. If you would like more details let me know.

:D

Thanks Troy, I have had Winjupos for some time but have done very little with it. I have been inspired by your animation, so a couple of hours ago I downloaded a tutorial on Winjupos. It is much simpler than I thought it would be to produce a polar projection, so over the weekend I plan on turning my high res animation from Aug 17th into a polar projection animation.

Good one Quark carnt wait to see your results.

[Troy]

Thanks Kev it's not my original idea but I'm happy with my first attempt at it.

That's amazing.

How do you like your Skynyx?

Greg.

[Troy]

Hi Greg,
The Skynyx 2-0 mono camera has been great. It's a bit more sensitive and lower in noise compared to other planetary cameras around except for the dragonfly 2 which Bird has been getting fantastic results with. Here is a frame out of the animation. This picture is the second best result that I have been able to achieve this Jupiter season.

Beautiful result, Troy. Are you coming to IISAC2009?

[Troy]

Thanks Mike,
I have not give it much thought but yeah I would like to attend iisac one year. Is it held at the Hunter Valley ever year?
One day I'd like to meet yourself and others.
