Jim Moody and I used his 16-inch LX200 in his observatory to image Jupiter on the evening of July 31, 2006. The seeing was variable and very poor on average but we got good results. The image on the left shows the GRS near Jupiter’s central meridian and the red oval preceeding above and to the left of it. One month ago the red oval trailed the GRS. The image on the right was obtained 16 minutes later, this time using a 2X barlow lens. South is at the top and the planet rotates from right to left. Good seeing to all from Jim Melka.
