Description:
Here is my attempt on Jupiter this time with very good seeing. This time one of the Jovian moons, Europa, is also included right beside the gas giant. Taken on August 6, 3:20 am EST (UT0720) at Southern Ontario, Canada Seeing conditions is extremely critical in planetary imaging. There is no magic if seeing is poor, as in typical experience for many of us. The sky condition was surprisingly good at around 3 am.
