Jupiter with a large festoon
On 02/17/2025 09:31 pm by Guido Santacana | San Juan, Puerto Rico
This composite of Jupiter features a large bluish festoon along the North Equatorial Belt. For this session I experienced good seeing conditions (7 to 8 in the 10-point scale by Pickering) and mostly transparent skies (4 in a 5-point scale).
