[Tinderboxsky (Steve)]

Last night's occultation of Io by Ganymede provided an interesting sight. The two moons could be seen converging for the occultation and then slowly diverging. After about 2 two and half hours the divergence ceased and the two moons started converging again for a second occultation. Unfortunately Jupiter had slipped below the horizon before this second occultation took place.
A transit of Ganymede's shadow was in progress during the first occultation.

So, and interesting sight as Jupiter sank low in the West
