Come gaze at the 11-day-old waxing gibbous Moon, with its dramatic shadowing along the terminator – the transition from lunar night to day – and terraced craters and fault-wrinkled ancient basaltic lava. Then take a look at our largest planet, mighty Jupiter, and its main equatorial cloud bands and all four of its Galilean moons.
