Re: [Utah-astronomy] Utah-Astronomy Digest, Vol 144, Issue 5
The current solar filament is impressive, about a quarter or third the diameter of the sun. A second thinner one joins and extends almost to the limb. If you have a solar scope don't miss it. Steve Hurricane On Sun, Feb 8, 2015 at 12:00 PM, < utah-astronomy-request@mailman.xmission.com> wrote:

Photo of Jupiter taken 02/07/2015, a little after midnight. Closer moon to the left of Jupiter is Io. The moon to the left of Io is Europa. This is about the best detail I can get with my current setup and considering my skills with image-manipulation software (virtually nil). If you squint really hard you may be able to see detail in the brighter bands. Considering Jupiter?s distance (650 million kilometers or about 400 million miles) I find it astonishing that one can get this sort of detail from one?s driveway setup in just a matter of minutes. The light-travel time from Jupiter to Earth is much longer (about 36 minutes) than the time it took me to acquire the 600 exposures I used to assemble this image.

Thanks, Mark. Tonight (weather permitting) I hope to get another shot of Comet Lovejoy. It?s moved into the northwestern part of the sky at this time. I looked at it last night, but didn?t take any photos. I haven?t seen 15P Finlay, yet. Maybe tonight.
