Making Sense of Jupiter’s Problems

See the first image in this post? You should notice two issues with it.

Why did I wait to 1am to photograph Saturn a few days ago? Because it had to clear the trees blocking my South sky view.

I was delighted to see both planets, along with all four of the Galilean moons, visible in the same field.

Assuming no more cosmological events of note for 2020, I found the “great conjunction” of Jupiter and Saturn to be not all that great.

I will continue to observe Jupiter, as it remains close to Saturn as they move towards their December conjunction.

Continuing the series of images from this past Friday night were shots taken of Jupiter and Saturn.

A comet and two planets, not too bad for one night.

You can also see sloping towards the right some of the brighter stars in the constellation Sagittarius.

This early morning view was simply too good to miss, so yes, I stayed up to at least see it when the Moon had risen high in the South.

This is a very exciting post, at least for me. It’s the first time on my blog that I have a picture of Jupiter and Saturn together!
