Kim, will you please remind us before the one later in the year? Thanks, Joe

I remember observing the last triple shadow transit on Jupiter from SPOC in March, 2004. We had clear weather, and though it was cold, it was worth the effort to see it. I think that SLAS billed it as a public event, but I don't remember. I see that there are three events coming up:
12 Oct 2013, 4:31 UT 3 Jun 2014, 19:02 UT 24 Jan 2015, 6:27 UT.
The next triple shadow transit after the January 2015 event isn't until
19:02 UT makes the time 1:02 pm MDT, doesn't it? So we won't see the June 2014 transit, either. However, it might be interesting to try and see Jupiter in the daytime. The January 2015 transit is the most promising. Jupiter is high in the sky and all we have to do is hope for good weather. (January in Utah - riiiiight...) -----Original Message----- From: utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:utah-astronomy-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Joe Bauman Sent: Monday, May 13, 2013 11:51 PM To: Utah Astronomy Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Jupiter triple shadow transits What about the other two? -- Joe ________________________________ From: Kim Hyatt <kimharch@cut.net> To: 'Utah Astronomy' <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Monday, May 13, 2013 11:48 PM Subject: Re: [Utah-astronomy] Jupiter triple shadow transits That's what I saw, too.

I show that on 12 October 2013 at 0431 UT Jupiter will be below the horizon from here in Utah. patrick On 13 May 2013, at 23:20, Joe Bauman wrote: 2032. Unfortunately it appears that only the January 2015 event will be visible from Utah. (Someone else please check your planetarium software to see if I've made any errors.) I know some of you may not get that excited about a triple shadow transit, but for anyone who hasn't seen it, I recommend that you add it to your astronomical bucket list. I certainly thought that it was one of my observing highlights. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Send messages to the list to Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com The Utah-Astronomy mailing list is not affiliated with any astronomy club.
