Jupiter telescope view - Low budget planetary astrophotography

Jupiter planet as seen through a low budget telescope. I bought my Newton reflector 6 inch telescope on classifieds market for less than 50 US$ and I used also a webcam to record the video of Jupiter that costs less than 100 US$.

Planet atmosphere changes constantly so this images may not correspond exactly to today's images.

No UFO, no Aliens, No Planet X, No Nibiru here, just ASTRONOMY, for people that love night skies.

Sweet!!! The only thing I could see with my Model RB-60 Telestar Meade Telescope is the Moon,One time my stupid dad thinking that he was looking at the moon and I was arguing about it with him,he kept saying that it was the moon when it was are outside back yard light,Can that make you go blind?

@1488nazissheriselitz If you head the telescope to a bright light while not focusing correctly the image, you see a circle of light, similar to a moon or a planet. Several years ago I also got confused that way. This is not stupid at all, just it is due to not being an expert on telescopes.

Did you have tracking? How did you get Jupiter to be centered do well and without any shaking?

[CumputerPhysiscsLab]

@msenin The magic is a software called Registax. In the original video, the planet is moving from one edge to the other constantly. My telescope is not motorized nor equatorial, so the planet shakes a lot.

@CumputerPhysiscsLab I thought Registax only works with images. I didn't know it processes video too. Thanks for the tip.

@msenin There is also another good free software that makes the job, called Castrator by Emil Kraaikamp:

@JFri4321 lol!

[jdastro]

Good job! You certainly know how to get the most bang for the buck!

[CG3BEAST]

wow the topic of planets is so interesting!!! i wish i had a telescope to view other planets from earth.

[JFri4321]

@CumputerPhysiscsLab 6 inch telescope for 50 bucks?? Bullshit.

@CumputerPhysiscsLab Thanks a lot ComputerPysicsLab for letting me know about the "Colour V-Block Colour Fringe Filter". It works GREAT for my SkyWatcher 120mm. Aperture 1000mm. Focal Length Refractor,just a Great Orion-V-Block filter without getting into the more Expensive Aries Chromacorr, I now have a better method of eliminating "Secondary Spectrum of Chromatic error" in my SkyWatcher Refractor now performs as an Apochromatic Refractors!!!!

Thumbs up and faved.

Great video! The final image after stacking with registax is nice too!

Cheers!

@CumputerPhysiscsLab I am NOT trying to reply in any bad way,but a Light-Bulb on your Telescope does NOT look like a Moon.A Light-Source will only look like a blob of Light in any Telescope unless focused.At 12 years of Age in 1972 with my 80mm.Aperture Carl WETZLAR Refractor I could see theLunar-Terminator at QuarterPhase,at 120x & 144x I could see dozens of Craters,Mountains Pyreenes,Rilles &Fissures &the Great-Wall of the Lunar Surface.In 1982 with My C8,I became ASTRONOMY Astro-Photographer!
