Event Report

Comments and anecdotes about the event:
Date: June 8, 2019 Location: Griffith Observatory My equipment was a 7-inch Orion Mak on a SkyView mount, Celestron NexImage10 at the prime focus. Moon. 100 frames stacked through Registax6. The large Hexagonal feature is crater Janssen, with Vallis Rheita running to its right. Rheita is the 2nd longest valley visible on this side of the moon. Jupiter was even worse. 20 frames stacked. Color was visible on the live video but not on the recorded one. Terrible image, but my first look at ol' Jove this year.
