Description

Last Jupiter imaging for the year and was lucky to have good seeing and a full Ganymede transit. Since it was so close to opposition, the moon's disk and shadow are very close to each other.  

TEC 140 with a 3 x barlow, ZWO 462 and  a AP 1100 mount.  37 gif frames created from either 2 or 3 minute .ser videos with about 5.2 msec frames.  I had to pause capture about two thirds of the way to pull data off my hard drive as it ran out of memory. Total capture was 400 GB! Processed in AstroSurface with small adjustments in Pixinsight and created a gif in ezgif.com.
