Hi Bird,

Yes, this bright spot seems quite mysterious. Next opportunity for that longitude will be the morning of Jan 13th.

In your animation the dark spot, much closer to the pole, looks very much like a shadow, however I cannot really detect a shadow in my images, neither in the R channel stills or the animation.

Noise Ninja sure does make a difference, it obviously helps with planetary imaging and should be very handy with deep sky imaging.

Trevor
