Jupiter GRS Transit Nov 10
Ganymede approaches, casting a sharp shadow while Io heads away from the gas giant. Timelapse spans about 2.5 hours in 4 seconds. We had nice but imperfect conditions as the temperature dropped and you can see the impact of some early clouds, then clear sailing. I nodded off an hour before the capture stopped abruptly; I have no idea why tracking failed after four hours of perfect centering.
Questar 3.5"/TV 5x PowerMate/QHY 5iii178
Captured with SharpCap Pro with feature tracking using RST-135E mount. Processed in AS4, AstroSurface and PIPP. From my yard in Westchester County, NY.
