Jupiter this morning from South Carolina

Posted By Mike Clemens

Hi Jim, how high does Jupiter get there? I cannot see it at all now. I am very much looking forward to it's return. I wonder if it's hit the low point of the ecliptic yet. What do you like to do with your observing time now have you been visually observing much?

Jupiter + Io and animation, 14/3

Posted By Mike Clemens

Astounding images... would be incredible if you had all four of the moons as little shiny ball bearings. I have never seen anything like that.

Are you all setup now Luke? I'm about to bring my 160ED in from the observatory for an annual cleaning.

refractor tubing, sizes, tube currents, etc.

Posted By Mike Clemens


I'd guess the 10" tube would require a more complex / larger counter-cell in order to get the lens out front of the tube entrance a little bit? Baffles would be easier on the 12", anything working inside it would be easier?
