The brightest "star" near the Moon isn't a star. It’s the King. 👑 If you look east of the half-moon tonight, that unblinking diamond is Jupiter. It is currently near its peak brightness for the year (Opposition was just weeks ago), meaning it is closest to Earth and fully illuminated by the Sun. Even with small binoculars, you might spot up to four tiny dots aligned next to it. Those are its Gallilean moons—Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. A miniature solar system, right there in your view.

✨ What’s that bright thing next to the Moon? ✨ If you noticed a super bright object hanging out near the full Moon the other night – no, it wasn’t a star… and no, it wasn’t aliens 👀 It was Jupiter – and we’re about to hit the best time of the year to see it. On January 10, Earth will pass directly between the Sun and Jupiter. From our point of view, that puts Jupiter opposite the Sun in the sky, an event astronomers call Jupiter at opposition. Around the same time, Jupiter will also be at its c

Head outside tomorrow night, January 6, and look toward Leo the Lion. The Moon will pass close to Regulus, the constellation’s brightest star, shining at magnitude 1.3. As Earth rotates, the Moon–Regulus pairing will drift across the sky over the course of the evening, so check back later to catch the changing view. Clear skies and happy observing. 🌙✨🦁 | Celestron
