Jupiter Nov 19

Seeing was pretty good last night - best I can recall for a long while. The images were easy to process for an acceptable result - just slight sharpening and deconvolution, which was a pleasant change. Am very pleased to have a record of the EB disturbance.

Sampled at ~0.27 arc sec/pix and scaled for display - will try again (tonight maybe) at ~0.2 to see there is anything more to gain through finer sampling, but my scope has a large secondary obstruction (f4) and an undercorrected primary, so this may be about as good as I can get. Something with a bigger aperture and longer focal length seems to be looming as the next step....

Thanks for looking.
