About this image

I did an early morning imaging run on Jupiter and was rewarded with very good seeing conditions whereas only average was forecast. GRS is setting in these two shots with storms A4-A8 visible below in the SSTB. The recent STB eruption that trails the GRS seems to have dissipated with not a great deal of impact to the Segment-A portion of the belt. Europa is transiting the disk but has blended in against the clouds to become undetectable in my shot. The NEB has darker northern and southern edges, as if it might become bifurcated into an NEBn and NEBs. WS-7 and WS-Z are evident along the northern flank of the NEB. The NTB is present as thin and orange-hued line, and NN-LRS-1 can also be discerned about ⅔ of the way to the CM sporting a very pale orangish color.
