Jupiter and the Galilean Moons
This evening was a full moon evening, meant to be dedicated for testing
my new Losmandy Titan mount. But Jupiter happened to have all of its
large moons off to one side, looking like ducklings following their mother, so I had
to try capturing the scene. The final image is a composite of a 2 sec. exposure
(for the moons) and a 1/60 sec. exposure for Jupiter's cloud bands.
