Jupiter is quickly sliding into the sunset heading for superior conjunction on June 19th. This evening the planet will be 10° above the setting Sun, in the next few days it will disappear into the glare. Look for Jupiter to reappear in the dawn during the first week of July.

Andrew- Looked for Jupiter last night on my neighborhood walk and didn’t see it, so assumed it was gone for the season. Was out a few minutes earlier tonight and unmistakably saw it a couple degrees off the horizon. Can’t imagine seeing it any lower, so it really is gone for the season now… Thanks for the reminder to go look one more time! -Dean
