A Personal View Of Jupiter

[Dalia]

If you want to see the two brightest and most interesting planets Jupiter and Saturn right now, they are in the morning sky. If you have a clear eastern horizon, you can see them probably after midnight.

At 3:30AM, Jupiter is EXACTLY due south. To the East you can find paler, yellower, Saturn:

We just had a storm. I have a nice view from a park nearby or flat school yard and park on clear nights. I have seen Jupiter on those mornings. I used to look for the North star and then find something that was just as bright and large away from it and that was Jupiter. I guess I didn't know what and where to look for Saturn. That said, I'll have to wait at least ten days as the forecast is cloudy for the next ten days .

They don't move much. It takes Jupiter about 12 years to go around the sky and Saturn about 30. So they won't move much.

I was watching a show about asteroids and I have a question about Jupiter and is it true that Jupiter can send asteroids in our direction? even if Jupiter is a reason that the asteroids remains far from us, thank you to understand that I am not a specialist as well as English but it interests me much everything which touches the universe

I think I saw Saturn with the naked eye, but wasn't sure since I can't see the rings. It did look more yellow. I used my binocs, but still couldn't see the rings.

I took my dogs with me, and eventually, they got bored. As a comparison to the excellent Celestron 11 SCT photos here, I've been watching this youtube. The second vid gives you an idea of how to align the telescope.
