Jupiter last night was created by Frank Ryan
Well between the passes of the ISS and Shuttle I was honing
my focusing on Jupiter and testing the PC that all was ready to go.
I grabbed a few AVI's but I didn't think I'd get anything useful from them.
This image came out alright..
It shows a little bit of detail and 3 moons.
This was taken without a barlow for 3 min. and the frame rate was
30 per second which is why I'm thinking it beat the seeing.
Faster frame rates are the way to go I reckon?

Carl, if you did do that I'd think;
''Wow, he'd dedicated. As crazy as a sack of cats, but dedicated!''

A grand image there Frank.
I try never to go below 20fps when doing the planets, I prefer 25 usually.
Going at 5 or 10 is always a waist of time for me.
Isnt it a pity that Jupiter is soooo low this year
