Did you see bright #Jupiter hanging next to the #moon this morning? It was a gorgeous sight! You can even see 4 of Jupiter's own moons. 😍 Don't miss a thing! Remember to check out our night sky guide for more events like this one: buff.ly/acHGvvn 📸 Karl Diefenderfer.

This has to be one of the best photos I've ever received here at @NBCConnecticut. Betsy in Cheshire shared this with me. That's not a full moon....that's "earthshine" illuminating the moon. The moons of Jupiter are the small objects!!

Sent to determine what conditions hypothetical life would face deep in the solar system, Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer, or “Juice,” must first make two more passes of everyone’s favorite inhabited world. Here’s why Juice won’t arrive for another five years: wapo.st/4yeRWzh

Why a spacecraft exploring moons where life may thrive is zipping by Earth

The path to Jupiter’s moons, which scientists believe could harbor conditions friendly for sustaining life, is long and paved with Earth flybys.

A successful Earth flyby improves Juice’s course to Jupiter. Earlier today, @ESA_Juice flew just 8640 km above the Indian Ocean and snapped these images with its onboard monitoring cameras. 1️⃣Africa, by Juice monitoring camera 2️⃣Madagascar, by Juice NavCam 3️⃣Moon, by Juice NavCam

木星氷衛星探査機JUICE🛰️2026年9月28日20:45:11時最接近時には秒速13.1kmのスピードです。地球からは「地球に近づく速さ＝離れる速さ」ですが、スイングバイで探査機の進行方向がかわるため公転速度が秒速約3.5km速くなります。秒速13.1kmとは東京から大阪までの距離を38秒で移動するような速さ😳速ッ
