The following sketch was made at 9:30 cst,the Grs was just a bit past the meridan,a big rift in the seb is shown as dark but it was really white as shown in Sol's sketch,the neb seemed twisted and swirling but I really didn't esolve a dark rift as Sol did ,no access to scanner I really must break down and buy my own,seeing conditions were very steady but all my eyepieces and filters fogged over I've heard of folks using a hair dryer to clear this up.THe grs looked reddish-pink when using the 82a filter.

Hi Thomas,

You're really starting to pick up on details, especially with the magnifications you're using. Please keep in mind that the sketches may be more about seeing through your scope rather than "art".

I've attached my homemade template for Jupiter for you to print out. It has some stuff lightly shaded in to help get you past the initial belt distribution.

Best, Sol Robbins
