jupiter observation session

Jupiter is at opposition and at full spectacle. Three satellites will be visible as the fourth will be passing on the disc of the planet. Venue is the terrace of Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Art Gallery, Race Course, Rajkot, Gujarat. Ganymede and Io are on one side whereas Callisto is on opposite side. Europa is entering the disc of the planet from left of the field of view (from right in a telescope) just besides the great red spot. Europa will emerge from the other side of the planet's limb at about 22.49 completing the transit.
