This is a re-processed set of 159 images taken from a few years ago. Each image was generated from a 3 minute video. It shows Europa passing across the face of Jupiter casting it's shadow across the northern hemisphere. Telescope: Skymax 150 Maksutov with a TeleVue 2x Barlow lens and a Baader fringe killer filter. Camera: Canon 550D in 640x480 crop mode. ISO Auto at 1/60s exposure. Processing: Quality filtering and centring done using Pipp, stacking and wavelets processing done using Registax 6.© D Elijah

From the album: Jupiter
I love to watch the Galilean Moons play out their celestial dance around Jupiter. In this image Europa is about to be occulted by the Jovian disc , Io is the nearer of the three planets with Ganymede as backstop. Callisto is out of the image frame. This image is the combination of two stills taken from two separate video runs. 127mm Meade Apo refractor, x2.5 Barlow, QHY5-11 planetary camera, NEQ6Pro on new permanent pier. -

Taken from our front yard in Atlanta, we only have a small window into the cosmos through the tree cover. In order to capture Jupiter at Opposition I had to wait until 3am when the planet came into view. ISO 100 1/20s© Charles Duffney

From the album: Davide's Astro Pics
An experiment in creating an animation of Jupiter and its moons. This is just a test to work out settings and timings etc for a longer sequence later. One frame is a little spoiled by cloud. It is 14 frames each one made from 100 frame videos of which the best 50% were processed in Registax. Created on 25/11/2014© Davide Simonetti

First night in back garden for what seems like forever, had an interesting session. Set the C8 on Jupiter while I dabbled with the star adventurer mini / Nikon D5300 / 105 2.8 macro. Tried too many things as failed miserably on focus with the D5300, Jupiter was just clearing neighbours roofs ... Got quite disheartened by 3am so took cameras off and had a peak at M13 before packing up. Absolutely beautiful ! C8 with ES 14 mm. Thought I'd try imaging it but only had the Nikon with William optics flattener attached ... Managed 20 x 15 seconds as hadn't polar aligned

Here is my video of the double shadow transits of Io and Europa in color with a little processing. More musical atmosphere with "La Langue des Sentiments". Is it easier to see the shadows in this color image? Kaleidoscopic skies! Reggie

Double transits of Io and Europa across Jupiter, shot just after midnight with the Orion Deep Space Video Camera II through the Orion 127mm Mak. Io's shadow is more prominent on the left, on the upper belt. Europa's shadow is smaller and is located on the extreme upper right of Jupiter (above the belt); it peeks in and out because of the less-than-optimal seeing. Also, enjoy some original space music by my band, THE FALSE DAWN, La Langue des Sentiments (The Language of Feeling). Clear skies! Reggie

17 frame animation. Seeing improved during the session. Europa itself becomes easier to see.

iPhone picture taken April 15th from central Illinois, USA. Not bad, all things considered. A few days later, I acquired a Celestron Solar Sustem Imager camera. -
Seeing was mostly poor, but I am quite happy with how it came out

I haven't played with Jupiter for a while, or any other planets for that matter, so I thought I'd put that right. Now is a good time to observe and image Jupiter as it is relatively close to us at this time of year - Jupiter comes into opposition on March 8th when it makes its closest approach to Earth. This was taken at 02:26 on February 12th (just before cloud rolled in and ended the session). Also visible are the moons Europa and Io. Europa is the moon appearing closest to the planet and its shadow is clearly visible on Jupiter's North Equatorial Band as it transits Jupiter to be followed b

Here's my best capture so far of Jupiter reaching the limits of my equipment. Taken at around 0:30 on 11th Feb 2016, 4 subs of Jupiter taken at ISO400 1/200sec f/12.7 & 4 subs of the moons taken at ISO800 1/2sec f/12.7. Each set of sub were processed through PIPP, then AS2! and then selective sharpening in PS before being composited into one single image to show planet & moons. My meager equipment being an Olympus E-510 4/3 dSLR attached to a 40 year old M42 mount 400mm f/6.3 preset lens via an adaptor and a x2 teleconveter. This gave me a equivalent focal length of

Last night was a beautiful night to image Jupiter and it's moons. After I took low exposures to get more detail on Jupiter (1/625 seconds) I bumped it up to 1/10 seconds to get the moons. I took the images with a Celestron 114 LCM 4.5" reflector and a Neximage Burst as the camera. The image is 2000 frames and was stacked and processed with Registax 6.1. Thank you and clear skies! Adam

A brief clear patch of sky on March 14th allowed me to be able to capture a few shots of Jupiter with three of its four Galilean Moons; Io, Ganymede, and Europa. After taking this the cloud rolled in again of course, but this was the first astro picture I've been able to take since late January. Made from 1,000 frame video captured with FireCapture and processed in PIPP, Registax, and Photoshop. Equipment: Celestron NexStar 127 SLT Alt-Az Mount ZWO ASI120 MC imaging camera x2 Barlow lens

Hi everyone. I recently acquired a ZWO ASI120MC-S and so with the bright summer skies I've turned towards solar and planetary lately. I'm not great at either, but I'm learning This is the result of my efforts from last night and I'm quite pleased with how it turned out given it was ~3-4 hours of sitting in the relative cold of my front garden. I've never managed to time weather & my availability with the GRS or a Jovian moon transit before so that's two firsts for me. The seeing was "soupy" to put it lightly, especially towards the end when the planet got lower in the sky and ended u

Yesterday I got a tip from my dear friend Peter Rosén in Stockholm that Jupiters moons Io and Europa were up to something special. I got my gear ready and did this short animation. Its taken between 20:10:37 and 20:55:00 UTC using my 8" telescope with a 2.5x PowerMate and a Imaging Source DBK21 CCD-camera. As you can see from the still frame, at one moment the two moons were perfectly aligned at the right hand side of Jupiter. Thanks Peter for the tip!

Hi, after a long time I finally had time and a reason to image a bit. And it was NICE. And cold ;-) But for good, all my equipment worked. Dewcap heater keept the corrector plate clean. Motor Focusser worked via Bluetooth. Celestron Mak127 NexstarSLT, 2x Barlow (cheap one), Nikon D5100. After testing a Rasperry Pi cam as Astrocam (worked soso...) I started just in time to get the entering of Europa. I tried several images but so far only the FullHD videos seem to have good data in them. The attached image is one I processed just after the session (3 o Clock in the night). Today

Jupiter just after a transit of Callisto. Taken just after midnight on March 18th, the shot shows from left to right the moons Europa, Io, and Callisto. Callisto's shadow can be seen on the top right side of Jupiter. Image made from a 1000 frame video Captured with FireCapture Processed with PIPP, Registax and Photoshop. Equipment: Celestron NexStar 127 SLT GoTo AltAz mount with homemade wedge ZWO ASI120 MC imaging camera x2 Barlow

This shot was taken in Regents Park, London at 22:07 and shows the Jupiter with its four Galilean moons: Ganymede to the right of Jupiter, Callisto on the immediate left of Jupiter, Io a little further to the left, and Europa on the far left. The shadow of Ganymede can be seen on the left side of the planet as it begins its transit. Jupiter is getting further and further away from us at this time of year but it is still showing a surprising amount of detail.

I hope I'm doing this right because I haven't posted a link on this this site before, but I wanted to share this short video clip of a time-lapse of Jupiter and its moons. Please let me know if there is a better way do this This is a very short time-lapse of Jupiter and its Gallilean moons taken on 2nd February 2015. One shot was taken every six minutes starting from 01:27 and ending at 03:40. This 24 frame sequence shows Io and its shadow transiting Jupiter while on the left Ganymede moves towards the planet and conjuncts with Callisto which is moving away from it.
