What is the length of night and day on Jupiter?

Jupiter's rotation is the fastest of any planet, around 9 hours 55 minutes.Jupiter has only a small axis tilt (only about 3 degrees as compared with Earth's tilt of about 23.5 degrees).So the days and the nights should be roughly equal in length all over the planet and at all times of Jupiter's year.So that means days and nights of about 5 hours each, approximately.The daylight would not be very bright, because Jupiter is so much further from the Sun than the Earth is.

You are seeing Jupiter, which is now in Taurus, near the Pleiades and Aldebaran. Taurus is up all night in the winter, so you can see Jupiter in the east after sunset and all night long as Taurus moves across the winter night sky. Just before sunrise, if you have a flat horizon, you'll see Jupiter in the west as it is about to set with Taurus.
