How long will Jupiter collide with the sun in 2020?
The exact time when Jupiter will hit the sun in 2020.
14 at 7: 58 on July 7th.
How long will Jupiter's eclipse last? You can see it all night for the next few weeks.
When Jupiter hits the sun, Jupiter can be seen in Sagittarius almost all night, and its height will reach its highest at noon local time. Jupiter will be clearly visible from 20: 36 to 05: 54. At around 20: 36, Jupiter will be in your southeast and the horizon will rise to 80 degrees. At this point, Jupiter is already visible. 0 1, 17, Jupiter will reach the commanding height, at this time it will be located in your south direction, and the horizon will reach 430. At around 05: 54, Jupiter will be in your southwest, and the horizon will drop to 80 degrees.
When Jupiter and the sun meet, the sun and Jupiter are almost opposite, in a straight line, so this magnificent scene will appear. At midnight, because the sun reaches the maximum position below the horizon, the opposite point is at the highest point in the sky. Almost immediately after this point, Jupiter completed its close contact with the earth (called perigee), so it looks bigger and brighter when observing the earth. The reason for this phenomenon is that when Jupiter is opposite to the sun in the sky, Jupiter, the earth and the sun are in a straight line, the earth is in the middle, and Jupiter and the sun are on both sides of the earth respectively.
In fact, however, Jupiter's orbit in the solar system is much farther than that of the earth-its average distance from the sun is 5.20 times that of the earth. Because Jupiter runs at the opposite point of the sun and the convergence point of the planets, the angle of Jupiter does not change much. In this case, the planet will be located at 4.4 1AU. At this time, the disk diameter is 46.6 arc seconds and the brightness is -2.7 stars. Although the brightness is very low, when Jupiter is at perigee, the naked eye will not confuse its light with that of ordinary stars.
Not to mention the satellite system and a pair of good binoculars, it is more than enough to see Jupiter's beam. In the next few weeks, Jupiter will be in a relative position, reaching the highest point in the sky every four minutes every night. During these months, Jupiter's light will gradually dim before dawn, but it will continue to be visible at night.
