Stargazers looking up at the night’s sky captured incredible pictures of Jupiter which made its closest approach to Earth in nearly six decades.
The red giant, the largest planet in our solar system which could fit more than 1,300 of our home planet inside it, was at its closest since 1963.
Last night several people went out into the chilly night and - with a good pair of binoculars or a telescope - managed to spot Jupiter and some of its 80 moons despite it still being 367million miles away.
