APOD: 2011 October 22 - Jupiter Near Opposition
by Decius at 11:24 am EDT, Oct 22, 2011

On October 29 (UT), Jupiter, the solar system's largest planet, will be at opposition, opposite the Sun in planet Earth's sky, shining brightly and rising as the Sun sets.

I've enjoyed watching Jupiter this fall. Its one of the brightest objects in the sky right now. Yesterday morning I was driving to the San Francisco Airport. The western hills were topped with a layer of thick fog, and you could see Jupiter hanging in the sky above them, still shining as the gray sky brightened toward blue.
