Jupiter & Saturn December 5th 2015

Hi All,

Imaged Jupiter this morning in quite reasonable seeing for the 43 degree alt. Have good coverage in 742nm IR, R and RGB of the region preceding the GRS. Have several white ovals lined up in the SSTB above oval BA. The GRS is on the F limb in the final data set. The whole session covers an hour of rotation. Have also attached animations of IR, R & RGB data.

Started my Saturn season this morning capturing 742nm IR data at alts from 20 to 26 degrees. Have attached the final IR image, the data improved as Saturn rose, from resembling a waving flag through to being relatively stable. Have also attached an animation of all data. Of course the seeing was a problem at such a low alt but Saturn will rise quite rapidly to peak at 77 degrees by opposition for my observatory.



Regards
Trevor
