Comments: Imaged Jupiter March 16th in quite nice seeing for the altitude. All data was captured with Jupiter below 40 degrees. I note the quite extravagant festoon in the EZ, the chimney above the GRS is most definitely open. Of great interest is the morphology of the SEB either side of the GRS. To the P side of the GRS the SEB is quite smooth but to the F side is chaotic and seems 3 dimensional. Within this structure there appear to be high altitude plumes, these are well seen in the Ch4 data. The Sun is shining on the surface from the F side and the these plumes seem to have shadow thrown to the P side indicating the height of these structures. When comparing these data with my data from March 11th the structure to the F side of the GRS has evolved significantly.
