Hubble Spots Rare Triple Eclipse on Jupiter (2004.03.28)

[lupabuatchannel]

I Really Like The Video From Your Jupiter looks like it has a mild case of the measles. Five spots one colored white

[cenedywong]

Your Video Is Very Useful Sharing Five spots one colored white, one blue, and three black are scattered across the upper half of the planet.

@Dmac11a666 it happens when you have one, ya dickless idiot.

[foryouwillneverknow]

thumbs up if you got here by looking up "rapist gone wild"

[GiaIsTheBest]

if you pause the video at 00:20, you will see that the length between the 2 shadows is about the same length between the 2 moons.

Knowing there is only 1 lightsource, you can confirn that Ganymede is about twice as far from the surface of Jupiter than Io is.

Boy I love maths!! :D

watch mine video

[FieldMajor76]

The annotations really disturb the overall beautiful coloration of the video. No harm, I know people want to learn. Maybe if they read the comments instead. Best video yet of real time Jupiter moon interactions, take care.

[djxatlanta]

@FieldMajor76 - I totally agree that the annotations are annoying!! But I've found that a lot of people who watch the videos I post don't read the accompanying comments. And people can always click the button to turn them off. =)

@djxatlanta i read the comments lol

sometimes as i watch sometimes after i watch but i always do,to get opinions,and argue a few lol

@FieldMajor76

turn em off

[theWTFbrainOFdiegoL]

the image is in false colors no?

[djxatlanta]

Yes -- the images were taken in different "flavors" of infrared light.

[shaka]

I can see only 2 moons! Where is the other moon?

[djxatlanta]

Ganymede is the big blue moon at the beginning of the video. At six seconds into the video, the shadow of Callisto falls onto the upper portion of Jupiter (this moon itself is not seen throughout the entire clip -- it's offscreen). At nine seconds into the video, white Io appears.

[BrodyDawg12]

@shaka There are many moons about 69...☺

[deadfish30]

@shaka idiot

[djxatlanta]

@deadfish30 - chill out, dude.

[deadfish30]

@djxatlanta another idiot :)

[jaxspider]

I saw three eclipse but only two moons. Am I missing something?

[djxatlanta]

Ganymede is the big blue moon at the beginning of the video. At six seconds into the video, the shadow of Callisto falls onto the upper portion of Jupiter (this moon itself is not seen throughout the entire clip -- it's offscreen). At nine seconds into the video, white Io appears.

Science is awesome. Take that, Pope Urban VIII!

[djxatlanta]

LOL... good one!! But in the Pope's defense (and in defense of all people), humans sometimes have a hard time accepting new understandings of the world around them that contradict deeply-held beliefs. To a child, the entire universe revolves around them, and it's a pretty big blow when the child grows up and realizes that it does not. Galileo threatened that childlike innocence with some serious "blow your mind" concepts... fortunately, we can thank him for doing it. :-)

[kaoD]

that was actually insightful

[jkebeans]

cool

[fegolem]

Awesome.
