Jupiter will not be visible at all during December 2007, but will re-appear in January 2008.
The Sun and Jupiter will be at conjunction on the 23rd December 2007. This is when the Sun will move in front of the plant Jupiter.
I don't know if that answers your question, but hey, gave it a go.
Check out the www.bbc.co.UK website and search for night sky.
No because the Moon is closer than all the planets. The Moon can block our view of planets (very occasionally). Mercury and Venus can move in front of the Sun but they do not block our view because they are too small and too far away.
The moon can block the sun from view despite being much smaller than the sun because it is also much closer to us. In the same line of logic, you can look at a person on the other side of the room and block their head from view with your thumb, even though your thumb is much smaller than their head.
On average, Jupiter is 779 million kilometers from the Sun
Jupiter goes around the sun. Jupiter, like all other planets in our solar system, orbits around the sun due to the gravitational pull of the sun. The sun is at the center of our solar system, and all planets revolve around it.
No, Jupiter is the 5th planet from the sun.
That's mainly because the distance from Jupiter to Earth changes over time. If we assume, for simplicity, that Jupiter's orbit is circular, and that the distance from the Sun to Jupiter is 5 AU, then, when Jupiter is in opposition (opposite to the Sun, from our point of view), it is at a distance of 4 AU (5 minus 1); when it is in conjunction (behind the Sun, from our point of view), it's at a distance of 6 AU (5 plus 1).

Yes,this is called solar eclipse.
If you are in the region of total eclipse, the Moon will block view of ALL of the Sun's disk.
block* When the moon blocks the sun's light, it is called a solar eclipse.
Sun and Jupiter because Jupiter has more mass and it is closer to the sun.
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun in our solar system.
The fifth planet from the Sun is Jupiter.
Jupiter does not orbit the sun in a perfect circle
Jupiter is 800 million kilometers from the sun
Jupiter, of course!
