Jupiters moons
I saw the same thing about 4 nights ago. Very Cool!!!

FWIW, I was checking out Jupiter with my TV Rangeraround 0200 hrs
today
(EST) and noticed that three of the Gallilean moons, Europa, Io and
Callisto,
formed an almost perfect equilateral triangle. Probably not a rare sight
but
first time for me. Jupiter itself was very clear with 3 bands clearly
visible
and two others less defined with averted vision. Stuff like this really
excites
me and keeps me interested. I often do my observing in the wee hours
because
it's quiet, the evening clouds have dissipated and the neighbors' lights
are
extinguished by then.
I was viewing from the deck in back of my house about 18 miles WNW of
Boston. It was cold and somewhat windy so I was surprised that the view
was so
steady.
Best Wishes,
