For those of you who find astronomy a nifty hobby (or even worthy of a career), you will note, first of all, that in honor of the one-year anniversary of this blog, I took out the Google ads, and put in a chart showing the lunar phase.
Also, it so happens that Jupiter is at it's closest encounter with Earth during this week. I took our telescope out the last two nights and got a good look at the planet. Even with our "little" telescope, we could get a good look at the planet and were even able to see it's four moons.
A very cool thing, to stand on planet Earth and actually see the moons of Jupiter.

When I first saw your title for this posting, I thought maybe it was about the Scruffy the Cat song, "Moons of Jupiter."
Not really.
