Jupiter 4/6 Another Perfect Night

Hello,

Seeing was perfect tonight at around 9/10 with transparency at around 4/5.

Lots of details in Jupiter's "boring side". Note the two spots on the SPR. There is a bright spot at the STrZ at the CM! There are also interesting blue festoons at the STrZ.

The SEB is very well resolved while there is a very big and dark blue festoon at the EB. The NEB is still filled with rifts. Interesting is the dark spot at the NEB at the CM which is surrounded by rifts and a reddish cloud. This feature has been present since late last month.

The blue bands at the NTrB are very resolved. While there seems to be some faint white rifts at the NTB.

Image processed with SGBNR with PixInsight!

More image later including a comparison of the CONR vs Default mode on the Toucam on perfect conditions!! Stay tune!!

Chris

Hello,

Here's the image of Jupiter under Color Optimized Non-RAW mode of the Toucam. It is softer than my earlier image but richer in color and less grain.

Regards,

Chris

Here's an image of Jupiter kissing Io. A few seconds after this image, Io went behind Jupiter.

Chris -

Super images - all of them. Are you using a ToUcam for all of these?
