Jupiter 01.11.04

Hi,

This observation is from yesterday morning, and it showed a calmer side of Jupiter.

The SEB appeared divided only by a gentle dark rift. Straddling the CM on the SEBs and SEBn, I noticed some notching.

The NEB also had a subtle dark rift that slope downward from the preceding southward side to the following northward side.

Disruption of the STB seems somewhat commonplace during this apparition, but this time out, the SsTB also showed some irregular bending.

The festoons were somewhat harder than usual to pick out visually, but at moments of better seeing I believe I got a good read especially for the 2 elongated loop festoons.

The barges on the NEBn showed well, especially the one on the preceding side.

Thanks, Sol Robbins

Sol,

Another excellent and beautiful observation of Jupiter. The SSTB and STB are interesting as they deviate to the north. The SEB looks rather typical. The NEB with the blue festoons along it's southern border and barge along the northern border is interesting as well. Please keep up the good work. May you have clear and steady skies.
