Christopher Go (Celestron C11)
Seeing was excellent this morning! Just uploaded this first image because it shows the white oval following BA. Note the dark feature at the center of this oval!! I will send all the images later.


Seeing was almost perfect this evening. Jupiter as around 56 degrees when I took the last image.
The GRS is the most prominent feature here. It's dark red core is resolved in this image. The south=southwest edge of the GRS is very dark. Note also the tiny red dot following the GRS. Although the SEB is very quiet,the area surrounding the GRS looks very busy.
The red ring of Oval BA is well resolved. The little white oval is getting closer to Oval BA. Hopefully they will merge in the coming months unless a dark cyclonic oval will appear again.
The NEB is very dark with a lot of activity. The bands on the north temperate zone is also interesting.
In UV light,the GRS and Oval BA are very dark. The asymmetry between the two hemispheres is very striking in UV.

GRSの後ろには対流に乗って前進している暗斑が接近してきました。
永続白斑の直後には白斑が近づき、BAと合体するか?、それとも南側を迂回して前進か?今後の観測が必要です。
