Hubble Space Telescope cruising past Jupiter
Hi,

Well, my luck was in and Jupiter managed to clear the tree line! Phew!

Here is a 10 sec photo of the Hubble Space Telescope cruising past Jupiter. The visible moons are Io and Europa; Ganymede is “hidden” in the glare of the over exposed Jovian disc.

Canon 40D with 400mm F5.6 lens wide open.
Brisbane, 8th August 2008 at approx 6:11 PM AEST (GMT+10).

Cheers

Dennis
