Description

My first Jupiter image of 2021.  Imaged in OSC RGB on the night of August 22, 2021. Jupiter reached opposition just a few nights prior on August 19-20.  The GRS was visible making its was around the limb during this imaging session.  Sky conditions were generally good at my backyard location with average seeing and good transparency.

Imaged with a C8 Evo, ZWO ADC, Baader UV-IR Cut filter, and ZWO ASI224MC. Imaging train was configured to give me ~F/20. Image capture using Firecapture with gain set at 300 and an exposure of 7.5 ms. Stacking in AutoStakkert3 (best 25% of ~23,000 frames captured over 240 seconds). Color balancing and Wavelet sharpening in Registax6. De-rotated and combined 3 images in Winjupos.
