On the night of Apr 03/04, 2026, under poor conditions, students from the PHYS 373 class and I acquired video clips of Jupiter. These students plan to use the video to extract the "good" frames and stack them.

The skies were consistently mostly cloudy, with occasional short windows through which we could collect measurements. The students acquired data using ASICap, managing to get images through B, V, R, and I filters over the course of about an hour.
