Jupiter, the Great Red Spot, and three moons, Sept. 2, 2009

Jupiter, the Great Red Spot and three of its moons are visible at 10:13 pm Central time. From left, the moons are Io, Europa and Ganymede. South is up in this and all subsequent images. Compare this image, which is a combination of 21 stacked images, to the next shot, which is from a single frame. The gain made in signal to noise is obvious.
