We are facing a small wonder of astronomy what happens each 13 or 14 years. It's about the appearance of Jupiter, the great planet of the Solar system, just behind the Moon.
In this way, when you look up at the sky, you can contemplate the Moon but, surprise, next to it and very close, a mysterious luminous point appears. This point is none other than Jupiter, although some have wanted to speculate with the UFO phenomenon.
The phenomenon occurs every thirteen or fourteen years in series of three or four episodes over several months. Right now it can be seen from the southern region. Of course, the phenomenon is much more spectacular if it occurs with a full moon.
And it is that the gas giant is one of the great sources of light in our sky. Novice observers will often mistake it for a star, just like observing other planets that cross our skies every night.
In this case, the show is not only beautiful, but it is suggestive and mysterious. No UFO phenomenon: just one more example of the beauty of the cosmos.
