Abstract
JUPITER is now, with his northern declination of 18° and an equatorial diameter of 48″, a very fine object visible above our horizon during more than 15 hours at a time. Thus, on December 1 he rises at 3h. 7m. and sets at 18h. 23m., shining nearly throughout the long nights now prevailing from a position about 6° south-south-west of the Pleiades.
