Jupiter – the King Planet Returns

Last week I saw Jupiter for the first time with my amateur telescope. It was very exciting seeing it for the first time! Great post!

That's excellent to hear @criptofeugo. What type of telescope did you use?

Hey @terrylovejoy, It's a Meade Instruments Infinity 102mm AZ. A basic one to start with astronomy :)

That should clearly show you Jupiters moons as well as the 2 equatorial bands. It should also show you clearly Saturn's rings (it's in the east at the start of dawn atm).

Yes, I could see the moons and blurry equatorial bands. Jupiter was my first planet, I hope to see Saturn soon ;) Thanks for the tips!
