Jupiter with the new Orion 10" f/3.9 Newtonian Astrograph May 27, 2017 Uploaded 6/1/17
This is with our other Imaging Source blue cube camera, the DBK 41. Its low noise charecteristics mirror our black and white DMK51 and it produces color images directly. Seeing was better than average, and this is the first shot I have taken of this planet which shows the Great Red Spot.
