Europa chases its shadow
June 19 1-4am Celestron C8 on EVO with ZWO 224mc and 2.5x powermate
Shooting through high and intermittently thickening cloud, though with some variability that occassionaly gave better captures. Jet stream supposedly about 30m/s so not terrible but not brilliant.
I think Saturn was a bit less effected by the conditions. Jupiter is a bit dulled (I boosted contrast a bit) and loses detail towards the edges but the central region is still quite interesting, with the first image showing approaching Europa and a bright GRS and the second image shows a faint but blurred Europa moving across Jupiter after its shadow.
Mars at 10" shows it ice cap reasonably as well as some albedo markings that are a bit faint to confidently assign.
