Jupiter, April 08-2019
Another picture with plenty of details of Jupiter.
I draw attention to the left turbulence of the GRS as well as details that stand out within it. The eye of the hurricane has excelled a lot this early in the season being easily recorded.

International Space Station Solar Transit and Sunspot
This lunar transit has been captured on the 12th of April, from the north of France. Fortunately, a solitary sunspot (AR2738) appeared few days before, disturbing the relative calm of the actual solar activity.

This picture was taken with a tracked doublet 66ED and a ZWO ASI120MM-S camera. The color layer was obtained with a DSLR camera.

Full resolution here.

Cheers and clear skies,
Quentin
