2023 Apparition Composite

This apparition, which is finished as far as imaging is concerned was a difficult one in which to capture

very good images: the combination of Jupiter at low elevation for where we live and consistently bad weather (not to mention being very ill for half the year ) conspired against us. Nonetheless a few acceptable images

were obtained in the following where the first, a collection of the better ones, is shown.

JUPITER 2024

 

January 10th 2024

Although the conditions were poor these small animations show some of Jupiter’s Galilean Moons shuttling back & forth (due to the animations reversing upon themselves btw) with the first animation showing an

enlarged view where Ganymede appears to be playing “hide & seek” as it moves behind Jupiter.

An “inverted” image from one from a section of the animations above.

 

January 9th 2024

A nice animated sequence in monochrome, a single image from this animation as well as a colour image from

this night and an “inverted” image as well.

Plenty of activity in the NEB & SEB with detail seen well into the polar regions on this night.

JUPITER 2023

 

29th December 2023

Here we see the GRS setting.

 

December 14th

2 “inverted” colour images from this night taken at different times and a single colour image below these,

all with the GRS on display.

 

21st November 2023

A colour and 2 monochrome images of Jupiter, followed by a larger-scaled colour image.

 

October 12th 2023

Another image with the GRS well-advanced in its passage.

 

January 9th 2023

The “other” side of Jupiter here, that without the GRS.

 

January 6th 2023

Here the GRS is setting on the right, with Io to the left and Ganymede to the right.

 

January 5th 2023

A short animation, then a single image (both in monochrome) followed by a colour image and finally another monochrome image from the night of January 5th. Note the very dark spot on the border of the NEB & EZ and some very long festoons in the EZ, particularly the very dark one.
