The video of the “mutual occultation” of the two moons in front of Jupiter and the eclipsing event of Ganymede by Europa that was recorded by Wesley is found at the SpaceWeather.com website http://spaceweather.com/.
SpaceWeather.com stated, "Nevertheless, it is an extraordinary observation, showing the distant moons as genuine world-like disks as they pass in 'mutual occultation'."
For additional information on the eclipses of the moons of Jupiter, check out the Astronomy2009.org article “The Special Project : Observing mutual phenomena of the Galilean satellites of Jupiter.”
The website is part of The International Year of Astronomy (IYA2009), which is a year-long celebration of astronomy that coincides with the 400th anniversary of the first recorded astronomical observations with a telescope by Galileo Galilei and the publication of Johannes Kepler's Astronomia nova.
The iTWire article “IYA2009: The International Year of Astronomy” contains more information on astronomy in the year 2009.
Anthony Wesley has photographed more images of the satellites of Jupiter. Check out the March 2006 Point Grey Research (PGR) article “PGR Camera Captures Jupiter.”
