Jupiter appears as a bright white object in the night sky that slowly moves along the ecliptic, taking twelve years to circle the sky once. It's the most changeable planet visible in a telescope, displaying a constantly varying cloudscape as it rotates in less than ten hours. Jupiter's rapid rotation smears its brown cloud features into east-west stripes paralleling the equator. There are also stripes of light coloured zones. The most famous of its features is the great red spot. It is oval and measures approximately 40,000km long by 14,000km wide. There are other spots that can be seen, some look brown and some look white but these features do not stay in the same place for long. If you are after more resources on this subject check out your local library (Dewey number 520).

What else can I help you with?
Do you sometimes see a crescent in Jupiter?
Yes, the crescent-shaped appearance of Jupiter is due to its phases as it orbits the Sun. When Jupiter is in crescent phase as seen from Earth, it means that the side facing the Sun is mostly illuminated while the opposite side is in shadow.
How can Jupiter be seen from earth when and were?
That's because Jupiter is made out of gases, it can be seen every 1000 years, last time was 2006.
How large is Jupiter seen from Saturn?
From my calculations the distance from Saturn to Jupiter is nearly the same distance it is from Earth to Jupiter. Give or take 50 million miles or so the view of Jupiter from Saturn would be about the same as our view here is on Earth. Good question!!
Can the red spot on Jupiter be seen without a telescope?
The Great Red Spot on Jupiter is not visible to the naked eye from Earth. It requires a telescope to be seen clearly, as it is a massive storm located in Jupiter's atmosphere. While Jupiter itself can be seen without a telescope, the details of the Great Red Spot and other features become discernible only through telescopic observation.
Which objects cannot transit the Sun as seen from Jupiter?
Objects that cannot transit the Sun as seen from Jupiter are those that are orbiting closer to the Sun than Jupiter itself. This includes objects in orbits closer to the Sun than Jupiter's orbit, such as Mercury, Venus, and Earth. The relative alignment of these planets with Jupiter and the Sun makes it impossible for them to be seen transiting the Sun from Jupiter's perspective.
How would you describe bobby's physical appearance in the book things not seen?
Bobby doesn't really have a physical appearance because he is invisible. Hope that helped!

What is Hades' physical appearance?
its a god..... no one has seen him... lol
Is Jupiter concrete noun?
Yes, the proper noun 'Jupiter' is a concrete noun, the name of a physical planet that can be seen with instruments.
How do you draw a diagram showing which moon would be brightest from Jupiter?
The four main moons all look about the same brightness as seen from Earth, and they are all at about the same distance from the Earth. That means that their brightness seen from Jupiter would depend on their distances from Jupiter.
What outer planet can be seen from earth without the aid of a telescope?
Jupiter is the outer planet that can be seen from Earth without the aid of a telescope. It is the fourth brightest object in the sky and is visible to the naked eye.
What planet can be seen with the naked eye from earth?
Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn can be seen with the naked eye.
Can callisto be seen from earth with a telescope?
Yes, all four of Jupiter's large moons can be seen with binoculars.
What can be seen from earth with the naked eye?
Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn can be seen with the naked eye.
Does Jupiter and earth have similarities?
Only that they are planets with some of the biggest moons. Earth is solid, Jupiter is gaseous. Earth has no ring, but Jupiter has one that can barely be seen! Earth has one big moon (If a moon the same size orbits Jupiter, that moon is a great moon), while Jupiter has a ton of moons! Also, 1000 Earths can fit into a Jupiter.
Is Mars the only planet you can see from earth with your eyes?
No, Jupiter can also be seen by the human eye on earth.
