Hi,

I had good sky conditions for observing and sketching Jupiter this morning.

Noteable activity was apparent breakup of bands in the southern temperate region.

Sol,

An outstanding observation of Jupiter showing a wealth of detail. The South Temperate Belt/Zone region shows much activity which may represent an elongated circulation within the jovian atmosphere at this latitude. The South Equatorial Belt (SEB) appears to be divided. The North Equatorial Belt (NEB) shows many fine features within it as well as it's borders. Thank you for sharing this excellent observation with us all.

Carlos
