Hi,
Got Jupiter again this time with the great red spot clearly visible. I watched it transit the globe (over a 3 hr period) It was really nice. Of course I wouldn't call it red but cream but hey who cares it was beautiful anyway.I saw it clearly at 78x (23mm plus 2x barlow) I could've gone lower than that but the only lower power that I had was the 23mm without the barlow and that was to low. Wish I could see more but can't from my light polluted bungalow colony.
