I was asking about Jupiter the other day and i was told it will be the summer before we really get to see it. Apparently it has just emerged from behind the sun and will take a while to get up there in the skies.
CANT WAIT.

I see Jupiter is rising with Venus at the moment (god bless Stellarium) - if we ever get a clear morning, is it possible to see Jupiter clearly? Or is it too close to Venus to distinguish any details?
Its pouring here too by the way.
