Jupiter, M44 (Beehive Cluster), satellites and the amazing aurora last night.
I've never seen this much red in the aurora before!
In Kiruna, Sweden
After days of rain and cloudy skies I took advantage of the clear and calm conditions last night (22nd Oct) to shoot Jupiter bright and beautiful as it approaches opposition.

can't believe my luck last night as i glimpsed out the window to see a perfect cloudless night with the moon and a shiny bright object to its left which i thought could be jupiter. its been reported that jupiter is at its nearest orbit with earth at half its usual distance so took out my canon to take these shots
Jupiter is stranger than we knew. NASA's Juno spacecraft has now completed its sixth swoop past Jupiter as it moves around its highly elliptical orbit. Pictured, Jupiter is seen from below where, surprisingly, the horizontal bands that cover most of the planet disappear into swirls and complex patterns. A line of white oval clouds is visible nearer to the equator. Recent results from Juno show that Jupiter's weather phenomena can extend deep below its cloud tops, and that Jupiter's magnetic field varies greatly with location. Juno is scheduled to orbit Jupiter 37 times with each orbit taking about six weeks.

My first attempt at imaging Jupiter this season. Conditions were pretty hopeless with persistent streaming cloud hampering my efforts. This coupled with bitterly cold air meant the result was that I was only able to acquire this one image from the session.
This is Jupiter's so-called "boring side" i.e the non Great Red Spot side imaged using a Baader 685nm IR pass filter. Plenty of detail is visible including two light oval storms towards the planet's South Pole.
A large elongated dark hot spot is visible in the South Equatorial Belt just left of centre. These are dark patches in the planet's ammonia clouds, at the top of Jupiter's atmosphere, which permit a look into Jupiter's hotter, darker cloud layers below.
Jupiter is such a dynamic world that there is always something to see.
Imaged with a Celestron C11 SCT and a ZWO 290MM camera fitted with a Baader 685nm pass filter.
Many thanks for looking!
Planet Jupiter captured on the 3rd September by Damian Peach using a 1m f/8 RC with 335mm mask. Data processed by me. You can access many data posts from Damian by becoming a patron.
The Juno spacecraft captured this image when the spacecraft was only 11,747 miles (18,906 kilometers) from the tops of Jupiter’s clouds — that’s roughly as far as the distance between New York City and Perth, Australia. The color-enhanced image, which captures a cloud system in Jupiter’s northern hemisphere, was taken on Oct. 24, 2017 at 10:24 a.m. PDT (1:24 p.m. EDT) when Juno was at a latitude of 57.57 degrees (nearly three-fifths of the way from Jupiter’s equator to its north pole) and performing its ninth close flyby of the gas giant planet.

▶ "On 8 October, a waxing gibbous moon will be hovering near to Jupiter, the 'king of the planets.' Both will be posed about one-quarter up in the east-southeast part of the sky as darkness begins to fall. The moon, which will be less than 24 hours from full phase — 99-percent illuminated by the sun — will be situated just below and to the left of Jupiter, a distance measuring roughly 4 degrees. To gauge how wide 4 degrees is, your clenched fist held at arm's length is equal to roughly 10 degrees."

***************
▶ "The Hunter’s Moon is the first full Moon to follow the Harvest Moon (which itself is the full Moon which occurs nearest to the date of the autumnal equinox), meaning that the Hunter's Moon can occur in either October or November. This year, the Harvest Moon occurred on 10 September closely preceding the equinox on 22 September. So, the Hunter’s Moon followed it one lunar cycle later, on 9 October.
▶ The earliest use of the term 'Hunter’s Moon,' cited in the Oxford English Dictionary, is from 1710. It is believed that this full Moon came to be called the full Hunter’s Moon because it signaled the time to go hunting in preparation for the cold winter ahead."

▶Photographer's note.
☞ I wanted Jupiter to be strong in the image, as it appeared to my naked eye. So, I took two images and composited them together as a focal length blend. Jupiter appears where it was in reality. See specs below.
☞ And, yes, the moon was 'only' waxing 99.5% full. But, again, I wanted Jupiter to be prominent.

Last night was wonderfully clear, so I took the opportunity for a couple of shots of Jupiter as I had read somewhere that it is at its closest to Earth for around 59 years. I took two shots - one to expose it as a very bright disc that also shows the four larger moons, and the other to show some surface detail which I just managed to pick up in the form of a few cloud bands.
Not exciting shots, but I am a bit of a space nerd at heart, so I couldn't miss the opportunity.
Handheld shots taken almost straight up as Jupiter was almost overhead near midnight. Both shots are heavily cropped right down to around 5mp.
Jupiter, located in Palm Beach County, Florida was originally named for the Hobe Indian tribe which lived at the mouth of the Loxahatchee River. A mapmaker misunderstood the Spanish spelling "Jobe" of the Indian name "Hobe" and recorded it as "Jove". Subsequent mapmakers assumed this to be the Latin translation of the god Jupiter, so they anglicized the name from Jove to Jupiter.
I am always recommending this one as a tree to grow in our area.
Lovely big cropping, big apple, reliable.
It has Cox's orange pippin (COP) as a parent, and retains that taste in a bigger apple than COP and without the frailty and disease susceptibility that COP has. i love these apples and a fruit bowl full of them looks great I think!
Pollination Group D which suits me in a frosty spot.
Like so many vigorous and large fruited apples it is a triploid so cant give pollen for other trees but does need a suitable pollination partner to give pollen to it.

In Palm Beach county the beaches and parks are closed due to covid-19, but the waterways and inlets remain open. Out on a boat in the middle of the ocean, just might be the perfect place to be.
Sunrise this morning, Jupiter FL.

This image from NASA's Juno spacecraft provides a never-before-seen perspective on Jupiter's south pole.
The JunoCam instrument acquired the view on August 27, 2016, when the spacecraft was about 58,700 miles (94,500 kilometers) above the polar region. At this point, the spacecraft was about an hour past its closest approach, and fine detail in the south polar region is clearly resolved.
Unlike the equatorial region's familiar structure of belts and zones, the poles are mottled by clockwise and counterclockwise rotating storms of various sizes, similar to giant versions of terrestrial hurricanes. The south pole has never been seen from this viewpoint, although the Cassini spacecraft was able to observe most of the polar region at highly oblique angles as it flew past Jupiter on its way to Saturn in 2000 (see PIA07784).
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California, manages the Juno mission for the principal investigator, Scott Bolton, of Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio. The Juno mission is part of the New Frontiers Program managed at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Denver, built the spacecraft. JPL is a division of Caltech in Pasadena.

Jupiter (and its 4 visible moons) and Saturn taken at 2am this morning.Two separate exposures of Jupiter and its moons.Saturn added to the image as it was too far to the right of Jupiter to get it in one frame.The exposure info.is not strictly correct as it was 3 separate exposures.I am not an astro photographer-the gear used is my normal bird photography gear!

Jupiter and Venus moving towards conjunction. Composite of two images taken a day apart on 10th and 11th June showing their apparent movement in just 24 hours.
This latest image of Jupiter, taken by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope on Aug. 25, 2020, was captured when the planet was 406 million miles from Earth. A unique and exciting detail of Hubble’s snapshot appears at mid-northern latitudes as a bright, white, stretched-out storm traveling around the planet at 350 mph. Hubble shows that the Great Red Spot, rolling counterclockwise in the planet’s southern hemisphere, is plowing into the clouds ahead of it, forming a cascade of white and beige ribbons. Jupiter’s icy moon Europa, thought to hold potential ingredients for life, is visible to the left of the gas giant.
