Here is a sequence I shot of the twin Satellite event from last night (03/13/04) on Jupiter. Seeing got better towards the end, then the clouds kept me from seeing Io's shadow on the disk. Ah well...try another time!!!

Dave Lassiter and I observed and imaged the transits of Ganymede and Io on Saturday night (which was an extremely cold and damp one by the way) with his 12" LX200 and Meade LPI from north of Harrisburg. We also imaged Venus and Saturn earlier in the evening and much later a few binary stars before shutting down.
