Comments: Imaged Jupiter August 28th in very good seeing, have exceptional data across all wavelengths, the resolved detail in the live feed from my Grasshopper 3 was extraordinary. I note a very elongated red feature on the Southern edge of the NPR between the CM and P limb. The NTrZ outburst is extremely well resolved, it looks somewhat like a comet with the tail streaming behind. The intricate structure within the NEB is well resolved with a concentrated tiny bright spot toward the F limb and another near the CM. The dark features along the Southern edge of the NEB associated with festoons in the EZ are well seen. I note that the GRS chimney has opened again and circulation within the GRS is resolved. The structure of the disturbed region following the GRS in the SEB is very well resolved as is Oval BA and the disturbed region in the STZ following it. DS6 resolves into two separate dark spots while Clyde’s spot is near the P limb. Many tiny dark spots a re resolved in the SSTrB and SSTeB and even further into the SPR.
