Wind Holwing and Poor Seeing

but, with the Transits of Io and Ganymede happening I had to give it a try. At least being in an observatory allowed me to observe at all. The wind was impressive with strong gusts. This ia an image with my AP 9" F/15 folded apo. The lack of detail is due to poor seeing. Io is on the limb, then Ganymede's shadow, then Ganymede.

Jim,

Pretty awesome image considering the conditions!! Lets hope it's clear and calm this weekend for the triple transit.

It's going to be fun to see who submits results first to different places like spaceweather, etc.

Hi Jim -

Great image - even if the conditions were not the best. Cool to see the contrast between the two moons. Thanks for sharing it.
