Jupiter + Callisto transit - 3hr rotation animation
Hi all
Finally got around to processing all of the data from last Saturday morning, 30th May UT. Seeing was variable (mostly just above average) but for about 30 minutes it really steadied and I was able to capture probably my best image for the year so far. Callisto is shown transiting across the face of Jupiter - it's very very dark! Captured with 12" newt, DMK21AU04. Processed in Registax v5 (beta). An 18-frame animation covering over 3 hours of rotation can be downloaded here (2.5 meg gif) Jupiter + Callisto transit animation 4 frames from the animation are attached. Thanks for looking.

I'll say it again, you guys down under have found some way to get out to the outer solar system!
Fantastic work. The animation has a great 3-d feel to it.
