I feel this is far better than my Mark 1 Jupiter from last year

Thoughts from this night:
I like the 585MC but it is slower than the 462MC at the same resolution. I think the 4x larger chip will really shine on lunar. 
I aquired this image while I was taking images of andromeda with my SpaceCat 51. I was running like crazy back and forth. I was happy to catch this rare opportunity to image jupiter so close. it was highest at around 3:30 am est. I took 13 runs of 2-3 minutes apiece. As expected the higher it got the clearer the detail. 

Please tell me which revision you like or any improvements I can make if you have a moment. It's appreciated.
