See Jupiter Tonight!

Jupiter is the closest to the Earth since 1963. You can see it in tonight's sky by looking for the brightest object nearest to the moon. If you have a telescope or a good pair of binoculars, you can also see four of Jupiter's biggest moons! If you have a clear sky in your neck of the woods tonight, don't miss out this opportunity to see our biggest planet!

Did you know? Jupiter's red spot is a storm three times the size of Earth! Get your copy of Planetary Personalities and learn lots of other tidbits of trivia about all the planets!
