Jupiter through a 150mm F5 telescope

Astronomy and Astrophotography are amazing when getting good weather. Here we see Jupiter at 2009-07-28 03:33 UT. The Great Red Spot (GRS) is visible near the center of the planet. First sequence shows Jupiter crossing the field because of sideral motion. Second sequence shows Jupiter centered in the FOV after aligned with Registax 5. Final sequence shows the Jupiter resulting picture after stacking every subframe and doing some post-processing with Paint Shop Pro 9.

The effective resolution reached may be near 1 arcsecond, and it is almost the maximum resolution available for such kind of telescopes.
