Jupiter and Io

Jupiter has a diameter 10x that of the Earth's and is 613 million kms away. It is a stormy place with wind speeds up to 360 km/h that constantly change the cloud bands.

Currently, the Juno spacecraft is orbiting around the planet capturing incredible photos and making close flybys of the largest moons. Another mission, called Lucy, is on a 12 year journey to explore two groups of asteroids captured by Jupiter's gravity orbiting preceeding and trailing the planet's orbit, known as the trojan asteroids.

I captured this with a 9.25" telescope and a ZWO ASI662MC camera and I'm blown away by the details we can capture from our backyards. The innermost Galilean moon, Io, is just to the right.
