Jupiter.



A tiny little dot. Even though it's a humongous planet, that's what Jupiter looks like as seen from planet earth. I've been wanting to watch it for weeks now, but clouds always got in the way. This morning I woke up early and spotted this dot next to the moon. Jupiter can be seen in the morning hours and the sky was too bright to see any stars, so I immediately knew that this one tiny dot must be Jupiter! If you're interested in watching planets, you can find starmaps online. I used this one to double check Jupiter's position in the sky.
