I have included a close-up of the area. Lysithea is faint, passing a star.

I can just make out the movement of the moon in question - excellent capture.

There seems to be much confusion regarding the moons of Jupiter. I use Guide 8 for my targets and it seems to work. I am sure this object is Lysithea (J10).

I believe J or j is important in their designations.
