Jupiter has returned from its disappearance behind the sun, and it can be seen during morning twilight. Look for it at 5 a.m., when it is due east and 23 degrees above the horizon. Its brilliance makes it easy to see. Jupiter rises four minutes earlier each day, and each morning it is higher at the same time. Jupiter is in Pisces, a constellation without bright stars. Fainter Saturn is 15 degrees to the lower left of Jupiter.
