Summary

Description
English: Animation of three discovery images of Jupiter's irregular moon Kale (S/2001 J 8), taken by David Jewitt and Scott Sheppard using the 3.6-meter Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) on 9 December 2001. Each image was taken approximately 35-90 minutes apart, showing the moon's motion relative to the background stars and galaxies. The apparent magnitude of Kale is 23.5. The raw image datasets used are 615036p, 615043p, and 615058p. For comparison, the star field in these images can be viewed at the CDS's Aladin star atlas.
