Congratulations Mike Salway once again !!!

Our Mike has done it again.

His Jupiter images have made Universe Today

Here's a quote from the article....

"Mike Salway, an Australian amateur astronomer using a unguided 10 inch Dobsonian telescope and a ToUCam web camera. The pictures were produced from images taken on March 12, 2006. The clarity of each image is similar to pictures taken by Voyager after it had traveled over 90 percent of the distance from Earth to Jupiter."

Well done Mikeeee.

Thanks guys.

The writeup was very kind - almost too kind Those voyager shots are fantastic, especially the animation. I hadn't seen that before. Blew me away.
