Description

This sequence was shot over 3.5 hours to try and capture Jupiter's rotation as smoothly as possible.
Seeing was fairly bad, but that's quite standard around here.
I also changed the camera to the ASI183MM Pro, cooled down to -15 degrees to try and minimize noise.

You can also see an eclipse of the moon Europa: at the beginning of the animation it disappears behind the Gas Giant, suddenly reappearing at the end of the video after leaving the planet shadow.

A better version of both videos can be found in my website: gulinux.net
