Jase ordered some new eye pieces, filters and a barlow for our telescope so we very briefly tried some of them out tonight. I could see Jupiter's two inner moons and ever so slight banding on Jupiter it's self. This YouTube video shows how a very similar telescope to ours picks out Jupiter in Brazil. We couldn't see Jupiter's bands quite as clearly but then we aren't in a dark skies area, it's actually not completely clear tonight and any film image will be processed and so clearer than just the raw image you see. But hopefully this will give you an idea!
