I am always amazed at the beauty of The Nightsky. All those celestial bodies spinning around in space. And I'm convinced that Jupiter can be seen right now. It has been seen in the pathway of Orion. Many other planets can also be seen at dusk. Venus is suppossed to be even more brighter than Jupiter. Mars and Saturn can also be seen with the naked eye. But even with a standard pair of binoculars. You can still see lots of detail in Jupiter's structure. The giant red spot is very interesting to find, through a standard binoculars or telescope.
There are also many different astroids. Shooting stars are very quick. So your eyes have to be even more quicker to see them, shooting past at incredible speeds. Jupiter has 16 moons. Mars has two. Pluto does have only one moon. But it is so small in size, and is called Charon. Pluto was only discovered in the 1930's. We call planets on the outer edges of the universe trans-Neptunian objects. Pluto is the most largest of these weird objects, on the outer fringes of our dark universe. It is so cold on Pluto, that ice remains its only appearance. The sun's heat and radiation doesn't reach Pluto. Its cold and barren landscape would be too inhospitable for humans to survive there.
