The seeing was not too good, but the show was wonderful. I shared views of Ganymede and Io in transit with my kids and then took a few ToUcam streams just as ganymede's shadow left the disk and Io was prepared to transit. The resolution was a little disappointing but it was a good challenge to try and make the most out of what could be recorded.

I hope many of you had a chance to observe last night too.

clear skies,
Alan

Thanks for sharing! It was clouded over in Dallas so no chance to see it otherwise!
