The Kenya Space Agency (KSA) has announced that planet Jupiter will appear bigger and brighter than usual in the night sky tonight.
The incident will take place on January 10, 2026, as Earth aligns directly between the Sun and the giant planet.
This cosmic positioning will allow Jupiter to remain luminous and visible throughout the night.
According to the Agency, opposition occurs roughly once a year and provides stargazers with the planet at its closest and brightest view of the year.
KSA has therefore advised that interested watchers should look toward the eastern sky after sunset.
“Jupiter is easily visible with the naked eye, but using binoculars, you’ll see its four largest moons, while a telescope offers a greatly enhanced viewing experience,” KSA said.
