An EXCEL spreadsheet showing all activity of Jupiter's Galilean Moons (Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto)
through December 31, 2009.

Moon activities include both the START and END times of these types of events:
 
Occultation - When a moon moves behind Jupiter.
Transit - When a moon moves across the face of Jupiter.
Shadow transit - When the shadow of a moon is seen on the face of Jupiter
Eclipse - When a moon moves into or out of the shadow cast by Jupiter.  A moon will begin to brighten or dim out of sight some distance away from Jupiter from our perspective.

All very interesting to observe, especially the eclipse activities.  All events and timings are based on visibility from Stow, OH when the Sun is at least 6° below the horizon, Jupiter is at least 6° above the horizon and occurring after dark but prior to 1:30am.  These restrictions are able to be modified by you after the download.  You'll figure it out. ;^)
(Times are listed in Eastern Daylight Saving Time - for UT, add 4 hours)

Other downloadable files to be posted later.    xxx
