Jupiter and Saturn now clear my tree line around 0130(L) so I don’t have to stay up too late (early?) for now. Both, for the time being, will be low on the horizon for years to come but we deal with what solar system geometry gives us. It takes Jupiter 12 Earth years to orbit the Sun, so it will be several years before Earth’s tilt puts Jupiter at its highest in the sky again. Saturn takes 29 years to orbit the Sun, we will need to wait a even longer for it to peak in altitude.
