Hi all,
Find here another image taken on Aug. 22, 2008 as my previous south pole image.
Here’s displayed the south-eastern limb.

Hi all,
After ages since my last lunar image sending, I take the advantage of restarting from a special one grabbed last year (!) showing the Cabeus area which will be tomorrow on the scene thanks to the LCROSS mission which scheduled that area for their probe crashing.
You can see Cabeus filled with shadow in the top-center side of my image, very close to the limb.

On that far night (Aug. 22, 2008) I had a quite favourable libration but poor seeing with some nice momenth though.

Let’s europeans sit down and look what NASA will get back from the impact.

  Hi all,

Another magic dropped here on September 30 when I imaged Jupiter at just 29 degrees altitude!!
Once again, I was located at 1200 meter altitude where the air bottom layers are causing much less degradation.
Very good seeing through the red filter, less consistent as always through G and B which are usually suffering with the Jup’s low altitude.

JUPITER SEPTEMBER 30

Notice the weird dark red “cat’s paw” feature on the NEB f limb, the spiral-shaped structure of the GRS whose internal arm looks as greenish and the weaker SEB.

Both the 2 images displayed here were processed at the same exact way and both do confirm any detail revealed.

Hi all,

Mediocre seeing and excellent transparency over that night from mt Giogo, surely the worst one I had from up there.
Note the dark-green line running inside the NTB.
