Jupiter - Saturday, April 26 - Sunshine Coast

These were captured early this morning from Woombye, near Nambour (Maroochydore) on the Sunshine Coast.

I'm up here for a few days on holidays

The conditions were OK...but not great...

Still a mile better than anything I've had in Brisbane for the best part of 9 months.

Sadly...no GRS...but still plenty of activity on Jove, particularly in the SEB and North Polar region.

Looks like the seeing might be on the improve too. Will be out there again tomorrow morning...and hopefully with the DMK. These were taken with the ToUcam Pro II and 3x barlow.

I've included a 1.3x Mitchell resample in Registax. It's a good way to gauge the seeing. It just holds up to this much resampling, which indicates to me the seeing was probably around the 6-7/10 mark.
