We seem to be trading early morning clouds!)) Here in La Sal, I saw your plasterism clearly this morning!)) Also, I finally got to see Jupiter with my new 4" refractor... very nice!)) It has been years since I last looked at Jupiter with a decent telescope!) My little 80mm f/5 refractor just couldn't do it justice... at least, not with my limited eyepiece collection, and cheap Barlow lens...

Too overcast this morning to see it. Only Capella visible. With Jupiter moving with respect the stars, the symmetry will be broken soon. Glad I saw it when I did.

I've had clouds in the early mornings... I just got a new telescope last week (Celestron Omni XLT 102mm refractor), and I've been wanting to look at Jupiter... no joy, yet... Anyway, since this apparition involves a planet, shouldn't we call it a "plasterism"?? ;)
