Description

Excellent seeing tonight for imaging Jupiter. Here's one of a number of nice shots I was able to get, despite Jupiter's small apparent size of just 37". We've been moving away from Jupiter since opposition earlier this year and it will soon be lost in the evening twilight as it nears conjunction (i.e., it's going to go behind the sun from our perspective). It's was nice to get such good conditions so late in the apparition.
