After a long time, we had a clear night, so I was finally able to take the telescope out to observe (and photograph) Jupiter. :)

Unfortunately, the GRS wasn't visible from Earth at the time, but I did get some detail in the clouds. ;)

4 of the biggest moons were also visible: IO, Europa, Ganymede, Calysto

I took several videos with different settings to capture the moons as well, which I merged in Photoshop.

 

Gear:

- Sky-watcher Skymax 102 OTA

- Celestron 2x Barlow

- ZWO ASI 120MC-S

- Sky-watcher Star Adventurer Pro

 

Software:

- Firecapture

- PIPP

- Autostakkert

- Registax

- Photoshop (composition)

just something that stuck with me

The Galilean moons of Jupiter Ganymede Europa Callisto.

It’s always amazing to see it through my camera.

 

Thank you for all faves and kind comments.

Aspen leaves shine bright while the planet Jupiter streaks across the night-time sky. With clear skies and a partial moon, I decided it was time to go for a unique approach with my first visit to the Maroon Bells - one capturing the streaking stars over the peaks. The amazing lighting and active wildlife made this an incredible experience - one I highly recommend.

 

This image comes from 15 - 3 minute exposures taken from Maroon Lake above the town of Aspen, Colorado.

Jupiter on Saturday morning in about the best seeing I've had this season, which isn't saying much! The moons to the lower right are Ganymede and Europa.

Picked up the 2X converter to try out on some moon captures in the future, some far to reach animals when traveling, and for the convergence of Jupiter and Saturn.

 

With a clear cold and windy night tried out the converter on my 300mm making it 600mm. The two planets now are on opposite ends of the full frame ... but within two weeks they should be a lot closer ... about 1/5th the moon diameter apparent as seen in the sky.

 

Tried some various shutter speeds and ISO combinations to see what worked well.

 

The capture here is a combination of two captures, one centered on Jupiter and the other on Saturn. Then I brought the two together in Photoshop. They should be a lot closer than this come 12/21/20. Hoping for some clear nights as they get closer.

 

Will practice some other settings and live view focusing as that time approaches to see if even crisper images of the planets can be taken with the 300/2X combination.

 

If you view large, you can see the rings on Saturn, and also you can see 4 of the larger moons around Jupiter.

Jupiter over Barrow Mump, Somerset. The evening sky in June never really getting fully dark providing a nice twilight effect past midnight.

A cyclonic storm in Jupiter’s northern hemisphere is captured in this image from NASA’s Juno spacecaft. Many bright white cloud tops can be seen popping up in and around the arms of the rotating storm.

 

The color-enhanced image was taken at 9:25 a.m. PST (12:25 p.m. EST) on Feb. 12, 2019, as the spacecraft performed its 17th science flyby of Jupiter. At the time, Juno was about 5,000 miles (8,000 kilometers) from the planet's cloud tops, above approximately 44 degrees north latitude.

Olympus digital camera. Jupiter-8m lens.

I recently learned that NASA's JunoCam images are freely available for download and processing (it is even encouraged to do so: www.missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam/processing#Welcome). So I had a try at it and can highly recommend it: the sense of exploring space and planets "on your own" is both, an exhilarating and humbling experience.

So once again last night while still in my pajamas standing on my driveway I used my tripod this time and different camera settings to photograph Jupiter and 4 of its moons before it disappeared behind all the trees on my street. It left my mouth open (much like the front door of my house allowing passing mosquitoes to find refuge in a cool living room environment) Taken with my Canon R5 and 100-500 lens

Eye piece projection 10mm

 

Processed with Autostakkert 2 and Registax 6.

 

Taken in my back garden Stevenage Uk.

Think I had a bit of dirt on the eyepiece , but i got such a headache trying to get anything out of this footage im gonna post it anyway.

1963 Magirus-Deutz Jupiter A at the PS.Depot in Einbeck.

North is up. This image is derived from a single RGB run captured in Firecapture, stacked in Autostakkert, wavelet sharpened in Registax, and color channel derotated in WINJUPOS.

 

Seeing was Average at capture. I had hoped to stack and sharpen in PSS, but the result was disappointing. I have four more RGB captures that can be derotated and added to this data. I feel like I am missing something with PSS, which is still new to me. I'll take a deeper dive when time permits.

My son and cousin sat on top of one of the many hills in Jupiter Artland, a finalist for Museum of the Year 2016.

 

This impressive, sculpted landscape greets you as you first enter the museum - it's a great place for kids (and adults) to explore!

Summer has arrived in full swing, and the Milky Way's silver threads sparkle with clouds of stars. Here we view of a hallmark of this summer's sky: Jupiter within the Sagittarius constellation. A double treat for me to get this capture as I happen to be a Sag! ;-)

 

By the way: if you're curious about why Jupiter basically appears as white in color, it's due to that fact that most of Jupiter's clouds are frozen anhydrous ammonia. In terms of true stars and not planets, the blue ones tend to run hotter, while the reds are cooler. And no, that's not sunset colors... it's light pollution from Fort Collins, CO (this was taken after midnight).
