Jupiter June 1, 2005

Hi all,

I'm trying to get caught up again. Here is an image of Jupiter shot on the evening of June 1, 2005. Seeing was decent, but again the evening was quite warm. This set gave me a chance to compare images from my C925 and Orion ED100. My conclusion is that while both images are very nice, the C925 definately shows more finer detail, as would be expected. The two images are as they came from the telescope, but turned out to be nearly the same size. (I think I have slightly miscalculated the final F/R for the ED100 image....it should be around F/48 instead of F/42.)
