Dr. Becky | Jupiter is the brightest it gets in the night sky this week - here’s why, & how to spot it #shorts @DrBecky | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 2 days ago
Jupiter reaches opposition on Monday 26th September 2022 but will be incredibly bright in the sky in the weeks around that. If you get a clear night, see if you can spot it. It is visible wherever you are in the world 👍

👩🏽‍💻 I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
