#astronomy #astrophotography
Who can explain this?
Ok here’s a question more for astronomy experts than astrophotography people. Early this morning I was somehow shooting bursts, of Jupiter (I think), trying to capture shots of Galilean moons.
The timestamps all show 4:41 am Pacific Daylight Time (US). There are over 100 shots. Many appear to show a blurred disc. However some of them show a clear occlusion (eclipse) effect.
There is obviously a big gap between shot #1 and 2,3 and 4 but they are in time order and they all have a 4:41 LA time timestamp.
Any experts in the group have an explanation?
