Monday is going to be awesome! It will be a day full of excitement especially for the people who are interested in space and science. Want to know why? First, NASA's DART Mission spacecraft will be colliding with an asteroid to test its defence mechanism. Secondly, Jupiter is going to make its closest approach to Earth in 59 years. You can expect great views of Jupiter the entire night of Monday. You can get a glimpse of the planet too. All you need is a good pair of binoculars to let you catch some details. You will also need a large telescope to see the Great Red Spot.

Informing about the same NASA said, "Stargazers: Jupiter will make its closest approach to Earth in 59 years! Weather-permitting, expect excellent views on Sept. 26. A good pair of binoculars should be enough to catch some details; you'll need a large telescope to see the Great Red Spot." NASA in a report further said, "Stargazers can expect excellent views of Jupiter the entire night of Monday, Sept. 26 when the giant planet reaches opposition. From the viewpoint of Earth's surface, opposition happens when an astronomical object rises in the east as the Sun sets in the west, placing the object and the Sun on opposite sides of Earth."

It can be known that in every 13 months Jupiter's opposition occurs, making the planet appear larger and brighter than any other time of the year. But that's not all. Jupiter will also make its closest approach to Earth since 1963 – almost six decades ago! Explaining the reason behind the same NASA said, this happens because Earth and Jupiter do not orbit the Sun in perfect circles – meaning the planets will pass each other at different distances throughout the year. Jupiter's closest approach to Earth rarely coincides with
