Hi all,

I was imaging the moon last night and finally I swung the scope over to Jupiter. The gas giant is a difficult target this season for my location with altitudes hardly over 30°. With settings of the ToUcam of 1/100s and 10fps the seeing was just 'frozen' enough to get some AVIs with acceptable sharpness. Nothing great but sufficient for a tiny 3 frame animation without the GRS 8)



Here the details:



I hope the images are not too embarrassing among all your fantastic Jupiter captures.

Cheers & clear skies,
Oliver

That's great Oliver!
Question, how long was the period between the first and last frame?


Keep it up! wink

Hi Oliver -

A very nice short movie. It is interesting to see how much sharper the view seems when the details are moving.

Thanks for sharing it -
Alan

Jupiter animations are always a joy to watch. They are also very difficult to make. Thanks for sharing.
