Wow - Jupiter during daylight! I don't remember anyone posting one of those before.

How did you find it in the sky?

Some nice features on the sun as well.
How did you find it through the cloud?

ditto to Mark's comments.
I like the Sun, lots of proms and detail.

At least some-one found a bit of clear sky.

QuoteHow did you find it in the sky?

Had the mount set up on the polar alignment mark so it was roughly aligned could see the moon so
I synchronised on the moon then politely asked it to go to Jupiter which I could see in the finderscope. :cheesy:
