Jupiter 22/09/23 - Ganymede shadow transit and Io transit of GRS

[Graham Darke]

Couple of images from early hours of this morning.  First image taken at 00.38 BST showing Ganymede's shadow. Single 3 min video with  Orion VX12L scope ZWO ASI662 camera and 2x barlow for f10.6. 

 

Second image is three 3 mins videos from between 01.39 and 01.46 BST derotated and shows Io transiting the Great Red Spot. I hadn't realised that these events were taking place and captured them by accident. Before packing up I stuck an eyepiece in and was treated to a very unusual view of the GRS with a very bright spot of Io centred over it as it approached the limb.
