Tonight I got a tip from my dear friend Peter Rosén in Stockholm that Jupiter's moons Io and Europa were up to something special. I got my gear ready and did this short animation. It's taken between 20:10:37 and 22:55:00 UTC using my 8" telescope with a 2.5x PowerMate and a Imaging Source DBK21 CCD-camera. As you can see from the still frame, at one moment the two moons were perfectly aligned at the right hand side of Jupiter. Thanks Peter for the tip!

Sorry for the flickering result after upload, dont know what happened, it should be a black background in the entire image.

Also, the correct time should read 20:10:37 and 20:55:00 UTC.
