Jupiter and Io 18.10.22

Hi,

I was all set to capture Io transiting Jupiter last night but dew intervened - I really need to invest in a dew heater..

Here's an image of Io just on the Jovian limb. I think my focus is slightly off - I really need to invest in a motorised focuser 🙂

30,000 images, best 15% used. Image resized to 70%.

Meade 8 inch SCT, Zwo asi224mc, Zwo ADC, 2x Barlow, Baader UV-IR Cut filter.

Thanks for looking, clear skies

Peter

Very nice Peter. How long was the capture ?

Great image. Motorised focuser has been invaluable in my experience.
