Jupiter & Saturn March 30th

Imaged Jupiter March 30th in rather ordinary seeing but nevertheless have some interesting detail with the GRS and especially the region immediately following it.

I note a bright oval in the SSTB, there is detail within the GRS particularly in IR & R data. There are two bright features side by side just to the F side of the GRS in the SEB. The region of the wake of the GRS is extremely turbulent and quite detailed in IR & R data. The EZ also is quite turbulent with a prominent festoon below the GRS. I also not a small red spot just below the Northern edge of the NEB and toward the F limb. There is a prominent red barge just above the NNTB toward the P limb that is very well defined in the RGB data. There is a tiny bright spot in the NPR midway between the CM and F limb that is in all data and easily seen in my IR animation.

Unfortunately Saturn at twice the alt was extremely disappointing and I only have one IR data set.

Trevor
