Description

I obtained this image after a hot day from a balcony - so I didn't expect much. Surprisingly the resulting stack shows many details after derotation and a mild wavelet sharpening for the 150mm aperture.

It is interesting to compare the structures of the Jovian atmosphere over a period of time. The image from about two years ago (rev. B) shows a somewhat larger and less oval GRS with a slightly darker color towards its periphery. Also neighboring belts and zones appear quite differently.
