Animation Io Emerging from Eclipse 20 Nov 99 |
|
This sequence
of images show the movement of Jupiter and the moon Io over a period of
about one hour. When the animation starts, Io is to the left
of the planet, but hidden in Jupiter's shadow. Io then moves
out of the shadow and fully emerges in about 3 frames. The actual
time for this to occur was about 2 minutes. You can also see the
GRS move across the planets disk. Click
