Callisto and the crater Heimdall!

[astroavani]

Another famous Galilean, Callisto is a bit annoying to photograph because it has a much smaller albedo than the other satellites of Jupiter.
I did not have the same success as with Europe because I believe that the darkest central spot should be some optical phenomenon and not a real spot that stood out in photos because it has a much more homogeneous tone surface.
However, I believe that the Heimdall crater may be perfectly recognized as a lighter stain near the south pole. In these cases, when a light spot is very close to the limbus, a small bump occurs in the photo, this is very evident when filming Io that practically never leaves round but rather quite oval.
I'm training to get a better picture the day that seeing resolve to help, so at least I'll already know the capture parameters that I should use on each of the giant's moons.

Woah! Now that's even clearer than the Europa - which I can understand would be due to the chroma-values of the true object. Yellowish v. shades of Gray.

Terrific!

That's an absolute cracker -,I agree with Dave even better than europa. Callisto is definitely my favourite, not just because of it's cool name but because it's the only one I can point to through the scope to my friends and family and always (nearly) positively identify!

Great image. There is definitely something bright down there.

This is a neat, little software-program that will show you the positions of the Moons and the GRS* at anytime you wish:

* GRS = Great Red Spot

Another fine capture Avani, any moon detail is most impressive.

Very impressive indeed Avani

Hail, Heimdall! Another awesome shot, Avani. Any extralunar detail you're able to get from our pale blue dot is amazing

Thank you to everyone who gives me the honor of commenting!
Dave, I use WinJUpos a lot to know the position of the Moons and anything on any planet the moment it takes: http://jupos.org/gh/download.htm
Another very good software to get details of the planetary surface or the main moons is the Virtual Planet Atlas: http://www.ap-i.net/avp/en/download

You did it again! Astounding...
