Jupiter, Saturn, Mars 10-11 Sept

[Cosmic Geoff]

Got Jupiter and Saturn in late evening, and Mars after midnight. Some of my best images so far with this new camera.  ASI462MC, CPC800, typically 5000 frames, best 30%, processed in Autostakkert (for Jupiter), Registax 6.  Seeing seemed good after midnight and I could easily see detail on laptop screen.

The moon in Jupiter image is Io. Mars image shows Syrtis Major and Hellas (brighter region).

Great images……. How many fps will the asi462mc do?

I am getting around 250fps on brighter planets with a USB3 equipped laptop.  Check the online spec for details. 

The rate achieved depends on the exposure time and other factors.

Excellent images!

It might just be me, but I think Mars could give Jupiter a run for the money, if it was just a bit bigger!

Mars has so much to look at, but it is a difficult target.
