Amateur Jupiter Video – a year later

About a year after my first Amateur Jupiter video, taken with an Imaging Source usb cam and my Celestron XLT 120 mm refractor with CG4 mount, I had purchased an Orion RA tracking motor and Celestron polar alignment scope which allowed me to keep the planet steady in the telescope eyepiece and use a Televue 2x barlow lens with the camera to get this higher magnification image of Jupiter and 4 of it's moons.
