Dual Shadow Transits Across Jupiter - 2024 JAN 06-07

[CentaurZ]

The shadows of the Galilean satellites #2 Europa and #3 Ganymede will be simultaneously transiting Jupiter during the night of 2024 JAN 06-07. Evening in North America.

Photos and descriptions of the transits would be welcome additions to this thread.

Here's my timetable for tonight that includes the shadow transits.

The sky was mostly clear to partly cloudy and I was fortunate to get a window between 9 and 10 p.m. EST to capture the double shadow transit here from the States. Ganymede's shadow is the larger of the two on the bottom left (moving toward bottom center) and Europa's is on the lower right, approaching the limb. The moons themselves were as follows: Io to the upper left, Europa lower right, and Ganymede bottom right (farthest out). The GRS was also visible making it a pretty spectacular apparition!
