Jupiter - 2022-11-09 23:10 UTC - With Ganymede and Europa
Above average seeing on this night resulted in one of my best Jupiter images yet. Two of Jupiter's satellites are included in the frame. Ganymede is to the left and Europa to the right. The Great Red Spot is setting on the western limb.
Zooming in on Ganymede reveals albedo surface features and some processing artifacts. Maybe the best processing for Jupiter is not the best for Ganymede. I may try to extract Ganymede, process and repost separately.
