Video Jupiter planet Celestron Newtonian telescope 8".

This is transiting Jupiter's Great Red Spot (GRS) on the evening of March 11, 2014

The largest planet in diameter of absolutely all the planets that our Sun holds so generously, is not depleting our interest to contemplate it by various methods with the naked eye, binoculars or an astronomical telescope, whether we just look at it, or film it / photograph it.

Here Jupiter is captured in a video by a camera attached to the telescope. We note on the left on the southern hemisphere also the famous Red Spot on the brown belts surrounding the planet 360 entirely. The most prominent are the two bands located near the equator.
