About this image

The first opportunity to image Jupiter for several weeks. The seeing was poor (Ant III - IV) except for a short period when the video for this image was recorded, when it improved to II - III. The earlier shadow transit of Europa had finished by the time the sky cleared. 3000 of 6000 frames stacked and processed using Autostakkert!3 and Registax.
