Last night I went out for a walk, and since it was a clear cold night with nearly a full moon, I thought I'd see if I could spot an owl or two...
No owls, but did notice a very bright planet in the southwestern sky. With the binoculars, several of its satellites were clearly visible, and a red light on the side of the planet was prominent.
When I looked online to see what it was, I found this from SkyandTelescope.com:
Sunday, November 29 - Jupiter's Red Spot transits the planet's central meridian around 8:42 p.m. Pacific Standard Time.
Pretty cool-
