About this image

Observation of Jupiter under above average skies (Trans 8, Seeing 7) using 25cm Newtonian, about 4 minutes of capture derotated. Ganymede is seen approaching Jupiter on the left. String of SSTB anticyclones is visible, possibly A5 as the leftmost one through A1 on right. Two dark condensations are in the STB roughly midway between the CM and preceding limb with the trailing one a little farther south (almost between STB and SSTB). The STB preceding the CM has several darker condensations within it. The southern edge of the SEB is scalloped with a strong loop festoon at about CM II 106°. The NEB is quite intense with a couple graceful loop festoons on its northern edge on the following side of the planet.
