[iceman (Mike)]

I was out imaging Jupiter before work on Monday morning, hoping again for some better seeing as I finally got for my image 2 days before.

Unfortunately it didn’t live up to expectations - it was really strange seeing. The detail was quite clear and steady and I could make out polar spots and dark storms during the raw capture, but localised bad seeing was causing a bad waving motion across Jupiter from West to East.

It settled down just enough to capture this image above in reasonable seeing just before I had to pack up to head off to work.

I'm looking forward to it getting light before 6am again, so I can finish my imaging run and THEN go to work and be on time!
