Jupiter Sketch 02.05.04

Hi,

I also made a sketch of Jupiter as well.

Other than the obvious festoons, and various dark spots in the NEB, the STb and SSTb showed interesting disruptions. It seemed like the STb sloped southward. I am sure that there was a break in the STb and an isolated segment that appears on the preceding side. These disruptions near the preceding side were a bit difficult for me to interpret, so I did the best I could.

Thanks, Sol Robbins

Another great sketch of Jupiter's quiet side Sol,the many blue festoons may be a sign of more activity on Jupiter, I wonder if it has cycles like the sun,Anyway I can't wait for the skies to clear so I can observe for myself.
