Jupiter with GRS & Europa Shadow Transit
HI ALL,
I woke up last night at 2:00am, hobbled out to my backyard, leg still hurts, but something was telling me to look at Jupiter....yep, it was A shadow Transit, I actually took about 20 sets of RGB's this is one of them, but unfortunately the neighbor's Tree blocked my view after 3:00am so I was not able to follow it beyond this point. Seeing wasn't the Best but it had Okay moments!

Neat! I saw Jupiter peeking
Neat! I saw Jupiter peeking over the horizon as I was heading to bed last night. I just placed an order for a DBK21 anticipating that I may want to take some animated sequences with my SC8. It'll be interesting to see how it compares with the DMK21.

If 50 years of amateur astronomy and space exploration has taught me anything it is that the Earth is a very special place. It would be nice to protect it like it’s the only Earth we’re ever going to have.
