Summer is a good season for stargazing as the visibility of the sky is generally high. You may pay attention to the astronomical phenomenon "Opposition of Jupiter" which will take place on July 14, 2020. When the planet Jupiter arrives at a position almost in line with the Earth and the Sun, opposition of Jupiter occurs. At this time, we can see a very bright Jupiter since it is relatively close to the Earth. It is also the best time to take images of this planet.

Jupiter is located at the east of the constellation Sagittarius and has a star magnitude of -2.7. We can find her near the eastern horizon at 7:30 pm, and the planet remains visible throughout the night. If you have a pair of binoculars or an astronomical telescope, you may see several satellites near Jupiter, and even the atmospheric bands on her surface.

Moreover, the bright Saturn of star magnitude 0 can be found next to Jupiter. Both of them are so bright, which can be found very easily. Some other celestial objects such as Mars, Venus and even Mercury can also be seen after midnight and before sunrise. It would be a good time to watch the planet family of the solar system!
