Saturn will also eventually lose it's rings.

Before or after our sun implodes?
Ripley: Ash. Any suggestions from you or Mother?
Ash: No, we're still collating.
Ripley: [Laughing in disbelief] You're what? You're still collating? I find that hard to believe.

Speaking of Jupiter, I guess it's to become very bright starting tonight - can't remember for how long. Was reading about it on some space site the other day. I'll attach the graphic of tonight's sky. Tho I am facinated by space, for some reason I've ever spent any time learning what I was actually looking at. Always thought it would be cool to have a telescope, or even some good binocs.

Jupiter's been up in the morning sky for a while now. It's simple to see, it's VERY big and bgright, brighter than anything else by far except the moon and venus. Binoc are goo but even a modest telescope you can resolve the stripes of the clouds and see the largest 4 or 5 moons.
