Triple Transit and Mutual Events
Telescopic views from the Philippines show Jupiter's Galilean moons in action on August 15. Io exits stage right into eclipse, while Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto transit across Jupiter. Mid-event, Ganymede occults Europa; a rare sight Earth witnesses every six years near Jupiter's equinox.
