Here's Jupiter's Great Red Spot centrally located together with a nearby
atmospheric wake extending beyond its right side. The swirling structure of the wake extends within the SEB for more than 50,000 miles. It consists of enormous
convective "supercells" that transport heat from deep within the Jovian
atmosphere (down to a level where the pressure is 4 times that of here on Earth).
I recorded this RGB image using 2400 individual frames for each of the
the 3 color channels at 57 frames per second for the red channel, 53
frames per second for the green channel and 37 frames per second for the
blue channel. The focal length for the image is 9,443 mm and the focal
ratio is F/34. I used a C11 SCT and a 3x barlow lens together with a
monochrome CCD webcam and filter wheel.
