Jupiter and Moons, Jan 25th 2014

Jupiter was bright and glorious viewed the evening of Jan 24, 2014. With my 10 inch dob the cloud bands on Jupiter were clearly visible sometime showing some details within the bands. From right of Jupiter as Europa (outer) and Ganymede (inner). From Left of Jupiter was Io (inner) and way out, at times out of the eyepiece (1/4 inch zoomed to15mm) was Callisto. Seeing was average, but Jupiter and it's cloud bands were easy to see until the secondary start icing a bit which seemed to produce a halo and washed out the planet a bit.
