Hi,

I had really excellent for Saturn, the Moon & Jupiter. The pity was that seeing started to deteriorate a bit in the middle of this sketch.

It was really nice that when I just finished it, 2 of Jupiter's Moons were almost sitting on top of each other.

This sketch once again shows a huge bay on the north side of the NEB. I would guess that its 2/3-3/4 the size of the GRS. Additionally, its much brighter than the surrounding zone area.

Sol,

A beautiful observation of Jupiter showing much detail. I too have noted the large bright bay over the northern border of the NEB. The rest of the planet shows much detail. Please keep up the excellent work.
