Smile Video of Jupiter Occultation

Hi all,

Last night I had time to put together a little 2 minute video of Jupiter being occulted by The Moon. I'm surprised how much of the occultation I have on video to be honest, I thought it was more broken and patchy than I actually have.

Enjoy

Really loved the animated portions of Jupiter going behind/coming out from behind the moon, especially with the banding so prominent.

I was very surprised what level of detail I managed to capture from such a short focal length (megrez 90 has a theoretical focal length of about 600mm, I had a doubler so that makes it 1200mm but with some quality loss due to the cheap doubler).
