Jupiter tonight with Io
I attempted to do a series of images of Jupiter tonight. Plan was to get the progress towards an occultation of Io and also show the movement of the Great Red Spot. Unfortunately I only managed one run of imaging before a bad of clouds popped over. However I was able to get these 2 images. Each one is a stack of 500 frames from a video of 2000 frames. They are about 5 minutes apart and if you look to the lower right you can see the GRS and the satellite Io and both have noticeably shifted position. On top of that, I think the images are not too bad. Taken with a Celestron Edge HD 8" scope, ASI224MC camera and Televue 2.5X powermate.
