Jupiter at 133x, low on the horizon (less than 30* high). This was my first observation of the planet since superior conjunction. Many belts were observed. Minus the SEB of course. A dark feature was prominent within the NEB. Due to the low altitude, smaller details were not obvious. All four moons were observed, two on each side with one outer moon set apart above the plane of the others as if it had just come around from the backside of the planet.
