      I saw the moons of Jupiter going round the planet Jupiter. Because the moons go round the planet quite quickly you can actually see some movement through a telescope if you watch it for a whole evening. Its really amazing because we’re not used to seeing things in astronomy moving that quickly. If you ever get the chance to look through a telescope I’d highly recommend looking at the planet Jupiter!
