How to find Jupiter tonight
Look toward the Southeast during the viewing window above. Jupiter will appear as a steady point of light — planets don't twinkle the way stars do, since they're close enough to show a tiny disk rather than a true point source. Give your eyes 10-15 minutes to adjust to the dark for the best view.
How this is calculated
This answer is calculated live using real orbital mechanics — NASA JPL's published Keplerian orbital elements for Jupiter, combined with Northridge, CA's real coordinates (34.23°, -118.54°) — not a canned or templated answer. Moon interference is estimated from real moon illumination data.
