i thought Jupiter was bigger#2: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Dec 12, 2010 [SPOILER]
Jupiter is the brightest object in the sky after the moon. Through good binoculars or small telescope you can see a colored disc with four bright moons in a line.#3: Joel Lynn (furface1) on Dec 12, 2010 [SPOILER]
Tom, Jupiter is bigger, but much farther away than Mars and Mercury.#4: Sarah Andrews (sarah) on Dec 13, 2010 [SPOILER]
cool!! saw Jupiter under the moon. I live in a dark sky locale so am waiting for the meteor shower.#5: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Dec 13, 2010 [SPOILER]
