Jupiter 05/09 GRS devours spots!

May 9, 2005
Seeing was great tonight at around 9/10. Sadly, transparency was around 3/5 due to haze!

Jupiter is filled with activity. Note the two spots to the left of the GRS! There is really a very big change in the area around the GRS compared to the image I made 2 days ago! Note the white spots inside the GRS!!

The NEB is filled with rifts!! While the EB has a lot of interestingly shaped festoons!

Here's another image from last night. This was taken about an hour before the image I posted earlier. Note the two red features in the left side of the NNTB. Also of interest is the white oval at the SPR. There is also a big rift activity on the NEB.
