Description

Short animation of Jupiter's rotation (3 images 23:00 - 23:11 - 23:22 UT).

Observing Jupiter from Central Europe is difficult now, but relatively good seeing (and observing from close to a vineyard) allowed imaging of some surface details.

There seems to be a dark/reddish, turbulent structure appearing in the NEB (centered around system II longitude of 106° and latitude of +17°) - which can also be seen (in more detail) in other people's recent Jupiter images.
