Wink Europa Annularly Transits Ganymede - Nov 16

I predict that Jupiter’s Galilean satellite Europa will appear in annular transit across Ganymede during the evening of 2009 NOV 16. At the same time Callisto will be in transit across Jupiter. I’ve created two diagrams. The first is a view from above Jupiter’s north pole, and the second is a view from Earth. They can be seen by clicking: http://www.curtrenz.com/astronomical . Below is my timetable.

Europa Annularly Transits Ganymede
2009 NOV 16 CST (UT-6)

19:19:28 CST Partial Transit Begins
19:21:48 CST Annular Transit Begins
19:22:32 CST Minimum Separation between Satellite Centers
19:23:16 CST Annular Transit Ends
19:25:36 CST Partial Transit Ends

Photos, descriptions and timings of this event would be welcome additions to this thread.
