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 southern edge of the Equatorial Zone is darker than the rest of the zone.
The Great Red spot is front and center.
Io is approaching occultation as Ganymede emerges from behind Jupiter.
