Watch Jupiter's moon Ganymede eclipse the planet live in 4 hours on youtube
(hit set reminder)
1) You'll see Jupiter in infrared live from a NASA telescope in hawaii
2) There'll be a Q&A with scientists
3) Weather is looking great up there
4) It's free https://twitter.com/RoyalAstroSoc/status/1283744462389293059
I'll also be lurking in the chat etc đź‘€
The scientists, my closest colleagues, are leading the observations:
Dr Tom Stallard @pro_astronomer
Dr Henrik Melin @hmelin_

Joined by:
Prof. Emma Bunce @drbuncen (president of Royal Astronomical Society!)
Dr. Sian Prosser, the RAS librarian @astro_librarian
Just to repeat: you'll see Jupiter in infrared, not visible as I depict above... it is just a handy contextual graphic and advertisement (people click things about 10-100 times more often if there's a video, I'm not kidding with that stat)

Look forward to seeing you there đź”­
