It's funny I should come across this post because I saw Jupiter and Saturn just after sunset through binoculars on Christmas Day. Two ponts of light, one quite bright, the other fainter. Amazing to see things so very far away, but then the gas giants are truly gigantic. There might even be some form of life, maybe around a thermal vent on a moon somewhere, but nothing we might have a conversation with.

Jupiter and Saturn are fairly close in the sky at the moment. They won't line up again until some time towards the end of this century.

@supersnipe you were so lucky. The cloud cover has been too heavy.
