Views of the Jupiter

 
Continuing …. Jupiter is continuing its westward movement in the evening sky. I my case, that means further towards the roof of the observatory. Problem with that is, the air rising from a somewhat hot roof will distort the air, essentially increasing the seeing, making it worse, of course. The first image is from October 21, the second from November 9, 2020. The blurring effect from the rising air is obvious. The November 9th image is a composite of two images; one taken to get the better image of Jupiter, the other, taken as a longer exposure, to get the moon.

Jupiter October 21, 2020



Jupiter November 9, 2020. Composite. Moon most likely Io.
