And Slaters Go Plop

Here’s a photo I took of Jupiter and three of her moons. Until yesterday night I wasn’t even aware you could see the moons of any other planet without an observatory-sized telescope.

Equipment required:

• 1 x crappy telescope
• 1 x el cheepo digital camera
• 1 x hour of fiddling with settings and a tripod
