This page has eight images all taken on the night of the 7th/8th September covering CM2 longitudes from 181° to 231° with the Great Red Spot (GRS) at CM2 = 138°. Here
we see the GRS moving off the disk. The Wesley scar is seen on the meridian in the 00:45 UT image. The images here are all of a similar quality due to the narrow range
of altitudes between 55° and 61°.
All images taken with a C11 and SkyNyx2-0M at f/37 with Astronomik type-II RGB filters. Frame rate was either 66 or 39 fps (depending on transparency). 50 seconds per channel. Images are presented with South at top and the following edge at right.
