Hi all,

Here are a couple of transit events from this past week.

The first double event with Callisto and Io was in variable seeing but the Ganymede event last night had a period of excellent seeing for a short while around sunset.

Hi all,

Here are some Jupiter images from March. Some periods of excellent seeing on a couple of nights allowed detailed views. All obtained from my home site on the UK south coast.

I will be resuming image emailing again as i've had several requests to do so.

Hi all,

Jupiter and Oval BA on March 3rd. One occasion to monitor its current colour state.

Despite having being taken under poorer conditions, the UV image does detect a further darkening in comparison with B or B425, so yes, its inside ring is indeed a bit reddish.

Hi all,
Some Jupiter images after a very rainy winter :/

They show the STrZ anticyclonic ring. While bright in CH4, there is no excess of absorption in UV (in comparison with the SEB) and so it has not reached the red spot state.
Best wishes,
Christophe
