About this image

Jupiter with Callisto to the north (below) and Io. Seeing fair (Ant II - III) and good transparency. Observing opportunities at the moment seem to be out of phase with the GRS, so this image shows many of the same features as the one from the 12th.

Chris, It's good to see your images appearing in the BAA Gallery. I'm also interested in your imaging of Mercury's sodium tail -- and whether it would be possible to image Io's sodium cloud. Could you send me an email via "Contact the Director"? Cheers, John.
