| Hydra User ID: 29748340  Germany12/12/2012 08:54 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | All four at one side? Happens sometimes - as 2 + 2 or one missing. . If the Moon is off, if Earth wobbles or if there is a pole shift how can things like this, predicted decades ago, happen?  Annular Solar Eclipse - January 15, 2010 - Rameshwaram, India |

I have never seen them lined up before. Sure is cool! So you see four do you? See my eyes are so bad all I can make out is three! Compared to a clock which number do you think they are pointing towards? Just curious! |
| Guess Who2 (OP) User ID: 2257450 United States12/12/2012 09:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | And if Jupiter has up to 24 moons how come we only see three or four? Just curious! And they always seem to be on the left side. Astronomy fascinates meet if you couldn't tell! Blows my mind when you really think about how we are just a "spec of sand" in the big scheme of things!!  |

I have seen all four at the same side some times. Yes, in a telescope. Compared to a clock which number do you think they are pointing towards? Just curious! Quoting: Guess Who2 It's a differen angle here in Germany - because of ... ahm ... field rotation. To the left side of Jupiter, quite evenly spread - Kalisto, Europa, Io, Ganymed. Ganymed is very close to Jupiter and in three hours in front of it - thus it may be outshined by the glare of Jupiter. .

True. I didn't realize where you were! Sounds like you know your Jupiter moons! But like I said..how come we see so few when it has so many? Is that because they are too far away from Jupiter for us to see? . |

Quoting: Guess Who2 Compared to the four Galilean Moons (3.100 to 5.200 km) the next biggest moon has only 168 km. The other moons are to small and to faint to see. .
