Jupiter Opposition 21st Sep 2010

An observing session of the Bedford Astronomical Society, organised for the night of opposition. In addition to observing through the 12" Dobsonian's on the terrace, great views were had through the Bedford School Observatory 16" Meade. Unfortunately, I didn't manage any images through the scopes, but was pleased with the atmosphere captured in these shots of "ghostly" society members.

In addition to Jupiter, we also had good views of the colourful green and blue disks of both Uranus and Neptune, the latter being a first for me. Marvellous!


By Jove!
