The buyer shines brightly on November nights … and appears as a point of light to the naked eye

Jupiter is observed in the skies of Egypt and the Arab world after sunset and the onset of night towards the southern horizon as a bright white dot to the naked eye throughout the current month of November.

The Jeddah Astronomical Society revealed in a report that when observing the planet using a telescope, for example (size 50 × 10) mounted on a tripod, Jupiter will appear as a bright circular disc and next to it are its four large moons called Galileo moons: Iowa, Europa, Ganmed, Callisto As if it were a miniature solar system, knowing that the positions of these moons are constantly changing due to their rapid rotation around the planet.

When using a small telescope, for example (5 inch), you can see more detail, as the cloud bars will appear that divide the atmosphere of the planet.

And he will notice the presence of a golden point of light near Jupiter which is the planet Saturn, Lord of the Rings, which is located about 5 degrees to the top left of Jupiter, and gradually they are getting closer for the rest of the world. fall, and will only separate them by 0.1 degrees when they are paired on December 21.

It is known that Jupiter is sometimes referred to as “the helpless star” because it possesses the components of stars, but for thermonuclear reactions to occur there, at least 80 planets such as Jupiter must merge to become large enough to s’ ignite like stars.

Despite this, Jupiter is the largest and most massive planet in our solar system, so on November nights we can imagine Jupiter shining like a small sun in the night sky.
