20 degrees on the south west horizon. It’s big you can’t miss it! It’s awesome!

Trapping is what built North America, why take that away?

Yes seen them both. Jupiter looked like a shining star. News man on local tv said Jupiter was extra bright because we also saw 4 of its many moons in front of it.
