I'm fed up with rain and clouds


Image taken from Video clips captured from our Backyard in April 2015. 127mm Meade Refractor and QHY5v planetary camera.
The weather has been so bad that I have not been able to try out my new 66mm aperture, 400mm focal length, widefield telescope and Star Adventurer mount. For heavens sake its Summer! Where has all the good weather gone?

Anyway, I found this previously unpublished image which I took with my grand-daughter Jasmine back in April of this year.  It shows Jupiter and all four Galilean Moons. The largest moon in the solar system, Ganymede, can be seen passing infront of Jupiter's Equatorial Zone.
