Jupiter 23-1-2007 from tassie

Hi All,

Jupiter season for me has started. It got above the 35 degree mark, at around 5:45am local time, so with mirror nicely cooled at 12.5 degrees and ambient at 12.4, I grabbed a few frames.

Seeing obviously was very poor due to low altitiude.

Looks like red spot jnr is about to transit.

Well heres to a great Jupiter season for everyone!

I am looking forward to testing my optics to the limit now I have active cooling of my mirrors.
