"BRIGHT PLANETS: For months Mars has been the brightest planet in the night sky
It's still bright, but starting this week Jupiter is even brighter !!
Jupiter is easy to find on any morning you might wake up early to get
ready for work or school. Look east around 6 a.m.; you'll see the giantplanet almost halfway up the sky shining like a -1.8th magnitude star.
Even a small telescope will reveal Jupiter's cloud belts and its four
largest satellites: Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto.

Oh, I do hope, I'll be able to see it.
Would give me such a thrill!!

Yes, Yes, Yes, I've seen Jupiter at 07.00 am this morning!
At a dark blue sky, it was shining very bright; all alone. No stars around it.
Just as bright as Mars at night, but Mars has a yellow-like colour and this was white.
But it was unmistakebly JUPITER ! !
Just seeing with my own eyes a member of the planet family.
Wonderful !
