Jupiter from tassie 27th 1908UT @ F52

This one was with the extension tube...........

This gives me about 8.7x f6 x 1500mm = 13000mm.

Due to less light, i had to drop to 15fps and carefully keep the 320px joop on the 480px screen

Comparing this to the earlier one @ F39, you can see the beauty of the 5x powermate and its ability to adjust with the length of extension.

I have included two images, one with the usual data, plus one with some features labelled. I am slowly coming to grips with the zones and bands and spots and barges etc etc

Great work Dave, that's a really nice shot.

When Jupiter gets to 50 arcseconds it's really gonna be squeezing the edges of the frame.
