Description

My first Jupiter of 2021. Captured with FireCapture, processed with AstroSurface (stacking & sharpening) & AffinityPhoto (color balance & fine tuning).

It shows the GRS together with Europa emerging from behind Jupiter and Io further to the right. Single 3min RGB capture.

Revision A is a composite of two 3min captures - derotated and combined in WinJUPOS.

Revision B is showing an animation of Europa coming out of Jupiter's shadow. Each image is 30s intervals.

I had to race against the sunrise. Seeing already started to get soft. Did not check collimation beforehand due to this...
