Michael A. Phillips' First Jovian Year (2007-2019)


Michael A. Phillips' First Jovian Year (2007-2019)

 Building off my last blog where I complained about all the planets being low in 2019.  I offer this illustration of a full Jovian year.  During this time period you can see Jupiter starting at a low altitude in2007 and rising to a high altitude around 2014 only to dip back down in 2019.   What's really telling to me is that even after swapping telescopes in 2011 the quality still drops from 2012 to 2019 because of the altitude.

Thanks! It was quite fun to realize the journey I was on!
