I was glad to read this report on the Great Red Spot (GRS) - likely continuing for sometime for telescope users to enjoy Viewing Jupiter at 150x or more and seeing the GRS rotate into your eyepiece field of view, especially while watching a Galilean moon transit - is very cool. It does not take long for the GRS to move towards the central meridian, about 2 hours or a bit and there goes the GRS moving across the field of view Same for those Galilean moons too.
