Double your fun

17:53:10 Richard Navarrete: At 5:45 p.m., I have been able to detect the double transit on Jupiter. One disk is about a third of the way across right in one of the equatorial bands. In my 6" Newt, the other shadow is larger and darker and has just made it completely onto the planet body. No sight of the moons themselves. The overcast is rolling in so I probably won't be getting a better view.
17:58:07 Bill Arnett: Me, too. The preceeding, very southerly shadow is Ganymede's; the other, more nearly equatorial one is Io's. I can't see the moons, either, but maybe the seeing will improve....
21:40:10 Richard Navarrete: I managed to catch Ganymede's disk around 6:00 just barely a notch in Jupiters limb. Then I had to go out to dinner.
