    The largest planet in the Solar System will be especially large and bright as it rises in the east at sunset. 🔭 Anyone with even a simple pair of binoculars or basic telescope should be able to see stripes on the planet's surface and some of its largest moons.

    Because Jupiter is directly opposite the Sun in our sky, it should be bright and easily visible with the naked eye close to the horizon in the east just after sunset for the next week 🌇

    The close pass will put Jupiter 367million miles away from Earth. 📏 At its furthest, the giant is 600million miles away, reports The Independent.

    Dr Kobelski said: 💬 “With good binoculars, the banding (at least the central band) and three or four of the Galilean satellites (moons) should be visible. It’s important to remember that Galileo observed these moons with 17th century optics."
