Description	Image
August 28, 1999 September 26, 2000 September 28th, 2000 Three color composites of the planet Jupiter. Note the prominent equatorial bands. There are contrast differences between the images and the second and third images are sharper due to better atmospheric seeing. In the third image, the Great Red Spot is visible in the middle of the planet in the bottom equatorial band (look closely, it isn't easy to see but it is there).
August 28, 1999 August 24, 2000 A color composite and B Filter image of the planet Saturn. Note the shadow of the planet on the rings.
August 28, 1999 Color composites of the double stars Alpha Hercules and 49 Cyg. The stars have different surface temperatures which results in strikingly different colors. (Alpha Her = Orange & Green; 49 Cyg = Yellow/Green & Red)
July 11, 1999 A mosaic of 60 second exposures with no filter of the cluster M13.
