Description

Jupiter on the morning of the 2nd of August, with Io (left), Ganymede (right), and Amalthea (stretched in as a dot above Ganymede). Many details are visible across the disk and around the GRS. Jupiter is still only 40 arcseconds across so hopefully opposition will allow for better details. Conditions were excellent - 9/10 seeing and good transparency. Derotation of 4x2mins pasted into a wider capture of 90s to position the moons correctly.
