\"\"Best 5% of 4K frames<\/a><\/p>\n

It has been a typical November month of cloud.. but we were able to get outside Tuesday evening and image the now very very low altitude Jupiter.<\/p>\n

This is the best 5% of the 4000 frames taken in 180 seconds.<\/p>\n

This was taken at 22:28 UTC on 2020Dec15th, or 17:28 EST.
\nJupiter is only 13 degrees above the horizon and has an apparent diameter of 33.4 arc seconds, much smaller than just a few months ago.
\nIn addition there was the outer edges of a cloud front coming up from the south, adding to the poor transparency and poor seeing.<\/p>\n

\nThis is the same image but processed with the best 10% of the 4000 frames.
\nMore data means a better date to noise ration and a little bit cleaner image<\/p>\n

Finally this is the same image processed with 50% of the 4000 frames
\n\"\"Best 50% of 4K frames<\/a>
\nHere we get more of the bad frames as part of the final image.
\nLastly, since I did not get a chance to annotate these images
\nhere is an image of the setup used.
