Hi All

Mike's transit animation reminded me of severla Jovian satellite alignments that I have attempted to observed over the last few months.

There is an was interesting alignment early this morning at 00:36. Jupiter and its four moons appeared as the figure attached. The four moons were very close to Jupiter, and Europa was transiting across the disk. Also Io and Callistro were above each other by about 0.8 Jovian diameters from the main planets disk.

Did anyone else see this?

The best event was on the 13th March at 09:24, with was invisible due to weather and Jupiter's position. This had, Io, Europa and Callisto in a vertical line above each other. The positions were as in the second Figure attached

Sadly, there are no other conjuctions like this for a little while.
