At what time was this, there were no gaps in the clouds here at all :?
I was looking forward to seeing Jupiter again.


Shortly after is got appreciably dark, after 11pm.

I had clear skies all evening - I went in at about 12:30 cause the seeing just died.

Hi FOlks

Got this image of Io shadow transiting last night. Notice also the barge below the shadow I thought this was another shadow


What is "the barge"? It looks like another object with a shadow.

What equipment did you use to get such a large image of the planet?
It is excellent.

I really must think of something interesting to use as a tag line!

Dave has a rather poor set up Don, he's only using a C11 to ge this kind of detail... :P
