👇🏽this is 2 hrs on #Jupiter compressed… my best video yet!😎🤩

Watch the Great Red Spot rotate in & out from our perspective, Io (right) and Ganymede (left) in their orbit

The best part? In the first frame, Ganymede is in a partial phase as it has just emerged.. that’s Jupiter’s shadow!

Watch Io emerge from #Jupiter ‘s glare👇🏽 in this 10 sec video (covering a little over 2 hours on Jupiter)

The dark “spot” on Jupiter’s southern band is not Io.. it’s Io’s shadow 🕶️
