Description

Jupiter with GRS, Oval BA and Europa shadow in the evening of Wed 8 Jul 2020 AEST.

Spoke to soon in my last post.. I have had some good conditions over the past fortnight :-)

Here's what consistently good seeing can do coupled with WinJUPOS derotation. Made a total of 40 runs just under an hour with about a quarter of the data integrated into this view. This image is a combination of 11,000 best frames recorded between 11:20 and 11:33 pm Canberra time.

Oval BA is approaching Central Meridian with a turbulent area in its wake. There is a curious vertical feature immediately to its south in the South Polar Region. The GRS and Oval BA both exhibit nice amount of internal detail. Southern red spot S4-LRS-1 is less prominent in high polar latitudes.
