Jupiter transit events, 24/06/2005

Hey guys.

If the sky is clear for you tomorrow night, it's worth a peek at Jupiter.

Io and Europa, and their shadows, and the GRS are all transitting between approx 6:00pm AEST until the GRS finally leaves at around midnight.

Here's the timeline:

Io and Europa ingress: Approx 6pm
Io shadow ingress: 7:20pm
GRS rise: 7:45pm
Io egress: 8:15pm
Europa egress: 8:40pm
Europa shadow ingress: 8:40pm
Io shadow egress: 9:35pm
GRS transit meridian: 10:10pm
Europa shadow egress: 11:10pm
GRS set: 12:35am

All times AEST.

Hope someone gets to see it, and take some images!
