Here's a feeble Jupiter attempt taken early this am with my Mewlon 250 and ToUcam Pro 840.
The image clearly shows Jupiter’s moon Europa. The image of the planet shows many features including a small red spot very close to the GRS in the southern hemisphere. You can see that the Southern Equatorial Belt (SEB) is still faded out, but the GRS appears to be deepening again and not appearing so pale. There are numerous storms throughout the Northern Equatorial Belt (NEB) that are easily seen in the image. Seeing was not too bad and light domes from Fredericksburg and Dalgren VA were apparent, but had little impact for planet photography.

Mortal as I am, I know that I am born for a day. But when I follow at my pleasure the serried multitude of the stars in their circular course, my feet no longer touch the earth.
