Description

Jupiter GRS region on the morning of Easter Sunday, 12 Apr 2020 AEST.

First of three derotations combining best stacks from the session. Started imaging shortly before 5am Canberra time and continued for just under an hour. Detail was soft due to moderate strength Jetstream with conditions improving significantly half way through the run. Transparency was also variable with high level cloud around. Altogether about 30 minutes of data was usable for WinJUPOS.

This composite combines 7,709 frames acquired between 4:58 and 5:13am local time, a total of eight stacks were used. Impressive festoon in the NEB has just crossed the CM (I could easily make it out on the preview) and GRS is seen rising in the west. Happy to bring out reasonable detail in polar latitudes despite the conditions.
