Hi all,

A fairly quiet Jupiter in average conditions.

Hi all,

Here is a Jupiter from July 10. Getting closer to processing my post impact images. This image is significant because it's the first with my new Meade Series 5000 3x tele-extender. I am replacing the Celestron Altima 2x shorty I've been using for 3 years. Comparing the two...no comparison, the Meade blows it away. Glad I found that out!

Jupiter July 23 with Bird Strike

Hi all,

I remember this session, the sky was totally overcast but Jupiter was shining. I had to double my exposure times but seeing was fairly calm.
