Opposition of Jupiter with Milky Way

The Milky Way provides a dramatic visual background to the starry night sky with Jupiter. June 5, Jupiter was at it's greatest opposition from the Sun and hence the closest distance to us. It is exceedingly bright over the next day or two. In fact tonight and tomorrow it will be at it's brightest visibility.
