Jupiter, 8-Oct-2011

I found a way to debayer the RAW images acquired from the SPC 900 NC webcam, and this image was produced by combining the best 100 frames form a one minute video acquired at five frames per second. The individual frames were debayered, aligned and stacked using Registax 6 version 6.1.0.8.

The seeing was significantly poorer than the night before, when the next image in this gallery was produced, but the RAW acquisition still resulted in more detail compared to the optimized color mode used the night before, though the result is a little noisier. The features in the North Tropical Zone are clearly more apparent here.

The Great Red Spot was not visible when these frames were acquired, nor were any of the Galiean moons.
