Thank you for sharing the article. But seriously? Does Jupiter have 79 moons? I can't imagine humans living on that planet.
There's a least of us to survive right there.
I would love to see this event. However, I need to find the nearest place where the telescope is available and free to use.
It has more than that. Those are only the ones big enough to count as "moons." Jupiter also has a very faint, thin ring with maybe millions of tiny moons.
You won't need a telescope to see the bigger moons, just a pair of decent binoculars. The hardest part for most plant hunters is getting out of the areas with light pollution. Find a spot on a mountain top, away from civilization and streetlights, sit back in your lawn-chair with your binoculars, and enjoy the view. Saturn can also be viewed the same way, the rings pop out like magic. It's quite amazing.
