Jupiter, June 5th, 2005

C9.25 @ F30
Toucam Pro 740
15 fps, 1/25 sec
best 1200/ 1800 frames
0030 UT
seeing: 5-6/10 trans: 5/10

Not my best of the year, but ok. Seeing has been excellent overhead, but degrades by the time Jupiter's altitude is reached.

Best,
Eric

Hi Eric,

Great image with your usual superb processing. I hope I get some of that decent seeing soon. smile

Clear skies,

Thanks, guys. 15 fps and a Toucam is sort of a gamble as compression becomes lossy and artifacts increase but none of the 10 fps results were as defined.

Thanks again,
Eric

Nice image Eric...not to worry on the altitude...we'll all be enjoying Mars for months to come way above the horizon smile

Best Wishes
