Jupiter-- the brightest planet in the evening sky-- rises in the east at 9 p.m. It is in the southeast sky during the evening and due south at 3 a.m, Jupiter lies south of the Great Square of Pegasus, a conspicuous pattern of four equally bright stars. Saturn, which is one-twentieth as bright as Jupiter, rises in the east at 10:30 p.m. below the Great Square.
