Photo of Jupiter's moons with cellphone

In summary: Jupiter, but it was still really cool to see them.In summary, Gliese123 was able to see two moons of Jupiter with a cellphone and binoculars. The results were very similar to what was seen through a telescope with 10 separate frames.

We are all familiar with images from professional telescopes but there is something magical about doing it yourself, to look through a simple telescope or binoculars and take a picture of another world yourself.

Thank you both for sharing your images, it was a thrill to see.

Excellent work. Did you take multiple pictures and stack? One can only imagine what the technology of the next decade will bring us!
