Hi all, Another new image of Jupiter, now showing the impact spot slowly approaching to the GRS:

JUPITER JULY 29

Fair seeing and very excellent transparency at mt. Giogo 1500 meters elevation.
More to follow.

  Hi all, Another new image of Jupiter, now showing another dark spot caused by Io transit:

JUPITER JULY 28

Seeing very poor with some decent stability happened during this capture.
More to follow.

Hi all, I could finally give my sabbatical year an end when I learned about Anthony’s discovery and I couldn’t resist any more to put my hands on Jupiter!

On July 27 I had a nice opportunity to grab the impact area under decent seeing through an IR pass filter:

JUPITER JULY 27

This is my first decent image out in 1 year!

The impact area was very evident at the eyepiece and looks like a solarspot with 2 well condensed nucleii rather than a single dark spot strecthed by the local jetstream.
I’d like to hear your comment.

Alas, I couldn’t take a color RGB image due to the quickly falling stability happened a while after.

This image was grabbed with a Gladius telescope on loan by a customer of mine for an important upgrade.

More to follow.
(hopefully)
