Lecture 5: Jupiter 1.avi

4.1 ( 11 )


Lecture Details

This video shows how to use an ordinary binocular (8 x 20) and digital camcorder to get a close up view of Jupiter and see its gaseous nature and the Galilean moons. The moons are actually better visible when viewed only with the binoculars because the camcorder makes it too dark to view them well!!
