Description

During my imaging session the other night (when I shot M51), I went out a bit early to set up since it's gotten dark later, and there's a bit more ambient light making things easier.

What was really nice, is that Jupiter was at a great angle from my yard, so I decided to image it a bit before I went for the deep sky stuff (while it was just a bit too light to do the deep sky).

This is 13 images of Jupiter, at ISO 200, 1/50 sec, stacked in Autostakkert. Taken with a Sony a6000 camera on a Celestron C6 SCT, f/10. I took the focal reducer off so that I could get the extra distance needed.

You can see the Great Red Spot, plus 4 moons (Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto) in this shot!
