CM3: 300.40°

CLat: -3.00°

Description

The best conditions for imaging I've had with the C8 so far this summer, although it got a little worse by the time I got to recording methane data.

Notes:

  • The North Temperate Belt has a small red spot just west of the central meridian.
  • White Oval Z is bright on its north side.
  • The Equatorial Zone is still orange and has lots of activity on it's boundary with the North Equatorial Belt.
  • The Great Red spot is front and center.
  • More than half of the long and faint STB Spectre has passed the GRS.
  • Io is approaching occultation as Ganymede emerges from behind Jupiter.
