Jupiter in good seeing, Aug 18

All,

Last night I had an extended session in excellent seeing, I recorded data almost continually from 11pm to 4am. This period covered a GRS transit which was followed by an Io + shadow transit. Despite the dire jetstream predictions it seems that this site (Exmouth in Western Australia) can sometimes turn on steady skies.

Here's one image from near the end of the session - recorded just after 4am local time. Io is visible at lower right.

Once again this is processed using my laptop and very dodgy display, so the contrast and brightness may not be quite right.

regards, Bird
