Even with the intolerable crud, I managed to finish my Messier survey with a hazy M79 in Lepus. Now I have to figure out which list to start chasing next. Also, with the help of James' 5mm Radian eyepiece, I was able to clearly resolve Saturn's C ring for the first time in my scope; After playing around with various combinations, I also discovered that I could use my Meade Ultrawide 8.8 with a 2X barlow to achieve nearly the same resolution.
Thanks for the clarification that the transit was Europa.... Having not looked at my Jupiter program, I thought it was Io.
