More amazing discoveries by amateurs

Hi all,

Found this attachment on the Meade 4M emails.

Its a bright spot in Venus's cloud tops imaged by an amateur with a Meade 10 inch LX scope.
Its possibly an atmospheric or volcanic event on the planet.

With everything going on from "Bird" strike on Jupiter to our Super nova guys who have made some S/Nova discoveries,
What a great year in the year of Astronomy.
