Jupiter September 16

Posted By Paul Maxson

Hi all,

I managed to get some pretty decent seeing on the evening of September 15 (Sept 16 - UT). I had gone downhill by the 3rd image.

What?? A Sunspot???

Posted By Paul Maxson

Hi all,

Finally, at least for a day or two the blank sun has a blemish!! It is as yet un-numbered so I can only call it "group" for now. Shot with my TOA-130 and Baader Herschel wedge. Seeing conditions were not very good.

Hi all,

The decent seeing continued on to Sept 18, which was nice with the GRS visible.
