Jupiter is almost always visible in the night sky, except for a month or so around the time of opposition (when Jupiter is on the other side of the Sun from the Earth). Jupiter is currently coming out of opposition, and ought to be visible in the pre-dawn sky after late March.
You can see Jupiter's moons any night whenever you can see Jupiter, with the possible exception of times when the Moon is close to it. Just now (2014) Jupiter is mostly visible in midwinter.
Mercury will appear at duck in the Southern Hemisphere during late August 2014. The Northern Hemisphere would not have been able to see the planet at the beginning of the month because it was too close to the Sun to observe.
There is no exact date of discovery. Jupiter is visible to the naked eye and has been known since before the dawn of civilization.
If you lived on Jupiter for one year, you would still be 10 months old in Earth years, as time on Jupiter does not change your age. However, it's important to note that a year on Jupiter is about 11.86 Earth years. So, if we consider the time dilation effect, you would still celebrate your 11-month birthday after one Jupiter year, making you effectively 11 months old by Earth standards.
Out of Mercury, Earth, Mars, and Jupiter, Jupiter has the longest year.

Yes. You are able to see Jupiter with a telescope from Earth at certain points in the year.
Voyager 2 began observing Jupiter on April 25, 1979.
Because a telescope is not needed to see Jupiter from Earth, ancient astronomers were aware of its existence.

The modern dates that we use usually shows us the day, the month and the year. The day, month and year are the relationship that I can see from the date.

It's not clear whether the question is talking about an earth 'month' or a Jupiter 'month'.We're going to assume that it means an earth 'month'. The 'month' is only an approximate concept,originally invented to correspond to the cycle of the moon's phases. Since Jupiter has at least63 moons (the number known as of the end of 2009), the concept of a Jupiter month doesn't makemuch sense.So we're handling the question to mean: How many times does Jupiter rotate on its axis duringone earth month ?Jupiter's rotation period is 9.9 earth hours.In 30 days, Jupiter rotates (30 x 24 / 9.9) = 72.7times (rounded)
yes you can see Jupiter from venus
What a fantastic question !Jupiter rotates once every 9.925 earth-hours (rounded), andorbits the sun once every 11.8618 earth-years (rounded).That works out to 10,475.8 Jupiter days in one Jupiter year.If you ever find yourself responsible for creating a calendar for acolony on Jupiter, you might want to consider something like this:-- 100 months with 104 days in each month, making 10,400 days-- one more 'leap month', to keep the seasons synced with the calendar.That one would have 76 days every year for 4 years, and then only 75 daysin each 5th year.
Might you be more specific? What month is august numbered, is what I can respond to, it's the 8th month of the year. August comes every year, as you can see, it's a month.
