Description

Observed and imaged Io's transit of Jupiter on the night of May 24, 2018. Seeing varied from poor to average.

Animated GIF was generated using a sequence of 20 images of Jupiter and IO starting at 02:46 and ending around 03:36 UTC on May 24, 2018. Each image is a stack of the best 25% of typically 8000-9000 frames captured over 60 seconds. I ran an imaging capture run every ~2-3 minutes.

Imaged with a C8 Evo, custom Siebert 2x barlow, ZWO ADC, and ZWO ASI224MC. Image capture using Firecapture. Stacking in AutoStakkert3. Wavelet sharpening in Registax. Animation generated using the free online animation tool at: http://gifmaker.me/.
