Dear fellow jupiter observers,

Attached are two jupiter images from 10th April 2003. Had all business trip
cancelled due to the SARS as my customers are too scared to see me smile (I'm
still healthy and never get infected) so I have some time to image jupiter.

The jetstream spot is very close to jupiter now and it will be very interesting to keep imaging it as long as the sky co-operates.
Some thin clouds rolled in for the 1344ut image causing the lost in contrast and I've tried to process it with lesser sharpening which gives a slightly smoother look.

Nice image as usual. What does CM 1=177.73 and the rest of those numbers mean?
