Description

I managed to capture several images of Jupiter (with GRS in view) and all four Galilean moons on the night of July 14, 2019. Seeing wasn't so great, but it was fun to capture all of this action in one frame. I combined 6 images to make an animation.

Imaged with a C8 Evo, ZWO ADC, Baader Moon & Skyglow filter, and ZWO ASI224MC. Imaging train was configured to give me ~F/10. Image capture using Sharpcap with gain set at 300 and exposure of ~3 ms. Stacking in AutoStakkert3 (best 50% of ~10,000 frames captured over 180 seconds). Color balancing and Wavelet sharpening in Registax6. Images adjusted in WINJUPOS, then generated an animated GIF using gifmaker.me.
