Observations of the sodium emission near Jupiter made while testing an interferometric imaging device are discussed. The results obtained suggest that the sodium emission detected in the region (designated C2) between 3 and 7.5 arcmin (9 and 23 Jupiter radii) from the planet may be no more than terrestrial airglow. It is concluded that region C2 is implausible on theoretical grounds and would need very solid observational support for its existence to be accepted.
