I appreciate the effort that went into the layered images. It looks like we needed move a fair way South to capture the transit. I have not done the math, but it looks to be at least 200m.

My humble imaging setup was pushed to its limits when taking the video. When I managed to extract the still shots there was no room to move in reducing the blown out effect seen at Jupiter. I am glad they can still be used to compare parallax.

Dennis is right Tom, you have this astro niche sorted.

Tom, your father mentioned an old image of Sputnik during a pass. If it can be found, is it possible to post a copy of it on IIS?
