Took a look at Jupiter through the Spotting Scope last night. Was able to observe the four moons. This is my first real observation, being that I am new to astronomy. I have to say, I am really enjoying it. I obsereved three shiny dots on the right side of the planet, and one shiny dot on the left. I am assuming that these were the moons. Feel free to send me an email explaining this. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
