Do you like astronomy, but hate late nights? You're in luck, because this year the Moon is passing in front of Jupiter from different parts of the world each month, and in November it's (most of) Australia's turn.
Binoculars and a telescope will be there to help you watch Jupiter disappear behind the Moon, and pop out afterwards, visible against a bright sky.
In between we can put a solar filter on and safely look for Sunspots.
