KSAT's meteorologists say the weather is going to be great for celestial viewing tonight!! 🔭
“The weather is going to be great for celestial viewing thanks to the dry air that’s moving in. Of course, the farther you are away from city lights the better,” said meteorologist Mike Osterhage.
“The views should be great for a few days before and after Sept. 26,” Kobelski said. “So, take advantage of good weather on either side of this date to take in the sight. Outside of the Moon, it should be one of the brightest objects in the night sky.”“Jupiter’s closest approach to Earth rarely coincides with opposition, which means this year’s views will be extraordinary,” the NASA website states.
Jupiter is 600 million miles away from Earth at its farthest point and at its closest roughly 367 million miles away. It’s also the largest planet in the solar system — more than twice as massive as all the other planets combined, according NASA spacecraft Juno has been orbiting Jupiter for six years. The spacecraft was launched in 2011 and reached the planet five years later in 2016.Copyright 2022 by KSAT - All rights reserved.
