I had a brief opportunity to image with the 3RF TMB 8" refractor just after our star party Saturday night. The clouds rolled in just as I finished an 85 second AVI. Steady skies, but hazy. The moon on the upper left is Callisto. The moon on the right is Io. Imaged in Wichita Falls, Texas.

That is a superb image of Jupiter and two of its satellites, Russell.

Chance favors the prepared mind.

Russell -

That is a gorgeous shot - and a great portrait of Io and dusky Callisto.

Thanks for sharing it.
