Jupiter and Callisto, 2022-08-11 0919 UT

            Jupiter and Callisto, photographed from Long Beach, CA

Callisto is Jupiter's second largest satellite and the third largest moon in the solar system. It has a low albedo due to having an ancient surface, so I boosted its brightness a little here so it could be seen more easily.

30 s SER files were taken with a ZWO ASI120MM camera through Optolong CCD RGB filters on a Celestron Edge HD 925 telescope using FireCapture. The top 48% of frames went into 14 stacks of each color filter. These stacks were made in AutoStakkert, then sharpened in PixInsight. Stacks were combined and derotated in WinJUPOS, and the resulting R, G, and B images were combined in WinJUPOS to make a de-rotated single color image. Color balancing in Registax, then final touches in Photoshop.
