Jupiter passed its brightest point for 2026 nine days ago—and it's still outshining every star in the sky. On January 10, Earth flew directly between Jupiter and the Sun, placing the gas giant at opposition: magnitude -2.7, closest approach 393 million miles, 45.6 arcseconds wide in telescopes. Tonight, January 19, Jupiter shines at magnitude -2.5 in Gemini—just 0.2 magnitude dimmer, imperceptible to the human eye. It still dominates the eastern sky after sunset, visible all night, setting at da
