Very nice, the detail near the GRS is really sharp!

And it was 'good seeing' this Jupiter.
An excellent image, Alan, superbly processed.

Good morning friends -

Thank you for your replies!

I think it is very interesting to study the images of Jupiter posted this week. The brilliant white spot that was first seen in Paolo's image from 4/30 seems to be moving very rapidly towards the GRS. In Chris Go's most recent image it appears to have moved over the dark oval (where it is positioned in my image) continuing GRSwards. What will it do next?

We have a fantastic armchair view of the solar system from this forum!!

best wishes -
Alan
