Saturn & Jupiter from 27 August 2022

Having been out all yesterday it has taken us a bit to process our data from Saturday night (27 August). We started a little earlier in the evening thinking that the cloud was going to move in, so Jupiter was still pretty low. The seeing was the best we have had this year. We also tried out a R+IR filter (610nm) on a monochrome camera. The Jupiter mono image with the moons is a single image with no enhancing of the moon exposure level. Also Europa on Jupiter's disk showed up better in the mono. It was just an enjoyable evening of planetary viewing and imaging.

All the images were taken with our 6" SCT. The colour images used an ADC and ASI178MC. The mono images were taken with ASI178MM.
