Double Jupiter Moon Pairings
Hi guys
Get on out and check out Jupiter tonight if you can.
Ganymede and Callisto and very close together on the West side of Jupiter, and Europe and Io are very close together on the East side of Jupiter.
A great pair of conjunctions, well worth checking out.
The seeing is "ok" around these parts tonight, not great but not horrible.

Thanks for the heads up Mike, but I just popped my head outside the window to be greeted by patchy cloud!
Cheers

Seeing has improved quite a bit - it's a shame the moons aren't closer to Jupiter.

At first I thought there was fault in the new optics, some sort of reflection.
It was cool
