Hi Phil -


Those are superb images of Jupiter - I don't remember seeing better from a six 

inch aperture. I had some success also on May 27 with that nice Europa transit - 

will post a finished image over the weekend.


Thanks for sharing those fine shots.

Alan

Thanks for the quick fix, I sure am glad I wasn't imaging between  

12:00 and 2:00 last night!


Last Saturday night I was treated to a night of good seeing and took  

the opportunity to image Jupiter through a 3.5" Maksutov and a  

Quantum 6 scope.  I put together a short animation showing the  

transit of Europa and a hint of Red Jr.  I used Quicktime to make a  

movie from 16 LRGB images, you can find it at the following address.   

This was very time consuming and i will be looking for a way to  

automate the process!

Also, I captured a few decent images with the Quantum scope that can  

be seen a the bottom of the following page.

Wishing all of you good seeing,


Phil

Hi Folks;


Last night at 12 am June 1st, 2006, a beta timer kicked off in Astro

IIDC. It would post a message stating this Alpha had expired and then

refuse to let you get any further.


This has been corrected and a new version (3.00.01) was posted to the

Astro IIDC web site at 2 am this morning. To download it, please point
