2017.04.07 Jupiter 10.5mins derotated LRGB

[Pete Presland]

The best seeing of the year, not a great claim to be honest though! Just caught the end of the Ganymede transit, Jupiter was a little low and a bit near some rooftops. Not the best position!

C9.25/Asi120mm, X1.8 Barlow. The 1st image with a ProPlanet filter, 180 seconds. The 2nd 10.5mins derotated LRGB. Stacked in A/S2, sharpened in ImPPG, derotated in Winjupos.

Great job, Pete!

Nights of good seeing can be a real challenge sometimes.

The view was much improved as Jupiter got nearer the meridian.

Nice images Pete. 

I caught the Ganymede transit at about the same time as you, but the seeing wasn't great.  By midnight things had settled nicely.
