Tonight's the night! Monday night! 12/21!!!!
Jupiter and some other planet with a bunch of rings are aligned at their closest point as seen from THIS planet! Looked amazing at 630pm Sunday night.
And check it out every night for a few nights as they separate.
Next viewing this tight will be in 800yrs. By then all humanity will be wiped out due to overpopulation, wars, famine, and Facebook! Gasp!

OK I looked it up and it was gigawatts. But I like Jigawatts better. Makes it sound fishy somehow.
