Jupiter, with moons (Europe, Ganymedes, Io)

The weather hasn’t been kind. Only some brief patches of clear skies, with some singular attempts at planetary and solar photography. To build up a bit of practice, on the evening of December 15, I imaged Jupiter a couple of times, with some different image resolution.

In these images, the aim was to capture some of the Jovian moons as well. 2 images captured, 30 minutes apart, showing 3 of the Jovian moons, swirling around Jupiter (Callisto was too far out to fit on the image). In the images: left = west / right = east

From left to right

Europe - moving west
Jupiter
Ganymedes - moving west
Io - moving east

Although this is a bit beyond the resolution limits of the scope, I’m happy with the result. As always, learning comes from the difficult situations, not the easy ones

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
