See the hours today when Jupiter stands 30° or higher from your location, checked every two hours in its time zone, so you image through less air.
Frequently asked questions
Why 30° altitude?
Below ~30° you look through more air, which dims targets and worsens seeing. Many imagers wait until objects clear that height.
Which hours are checked?
Every even hour of today, 00:00 to 22:00 in your pin’s time zone. Only the hours with Jupiter at 30° or higher are listed, and daytime hours count, so check them against Sun/Moon Times & Dark Window.
