June 13, 200619 yr Amateur astronomers first noticed the gap closing between the two storms and notified NASA, said Orton. Jupiter is clearly visible in the evening sky. It can be founded about halfway up in the southeastern sky at sunset. You see this so much more from the so called professionals, these days.
June 13, 200619 yr Hmmm, they will touch on July 4th....independence day. Will Smith. Space. Aliens. I see the connection.

Astronomy was always something I wanted to get into, but I got sick and tired of math and just wasn't very good at physics so that was short lived. I still love reading about it or looking at planets and stars through a telescope. What I really want to do someday is go to the southern hemisphere and get a look at their stars.
