My last image was more that a month ago. I left for the USA to attend the DPS 2008 meeting at Ithaca, NY. I was fortunate to meet ALPO Mercury section head Frank Melillo there. He did a presentation on Mercury while I did one on Jupiter's SEB cycle. I will post a report on the DPS 2008 in the next few days. During my trip to the US I was able to acquire a Schuler UV filter.
Jupiter is getting low in the sky. Seeing was great because of the altitude. The White Oval Z on the NEBn is very prominent. Note the outbreak on the SEB area which is bright also in UV and Methane Band.
