Jupiter & Io Transit - A Little Further Along!

Recommended Posts

Hi all. Just posting a second image from last Saturday evening`s Io transit of the big lad! This was taken around one half hours later than my first effort. Io`s shadow has now appeared and is nicely placed, while Io itself is approaching the right limb. The satellite was also reflecting brightly. Jupiter is now well passed opposition and it is always interesting to see the moon`s shadow trailing by quite a distance due to the sun`s angle. Thanks for looking, clear skies and...

                                                                    Best regards,
