Jupiter will be at its biggest and brightest this weekend, providing a great opportunity for sky watchers.
Jupiter will be in opposition on Saturday, December 7th, making it directly opposite from the sun as seen from Earth.
Jupiter will be at its closest to Earth on Friday, December 6th, resulting in its relative closeness and increased size in the sky.
It is possible to view Jupiter with the naked eye, but using binoculars or a telescope allows for a better view, and even a chance to see some of Jupiter's larger moons.
