Jupiter's Rare Triple Eclipse

November 8, 2004 Robby

Jupiter has four moons roughly the same size as Earth’s Moon. The shadows of three of them occasionally sweep simultaneously across Jupiter. Viewing the triple shadows in 2004 was special, because two of the moons were crossing Jupiter’s face at the same time as the three shadows.
