For fun, I sent my skymap software to Osaka on the 30th of April. The

Heh ...

A photo of the recent lunar eclipse was shown on BBC Regional News here.
The weather forecaster said, "and the bright star you can see just *there*
is Jupiter".

Since when did Jupiter become a star?

Who gave permission to move Jupiter from being high up overhead to down low
in the SE sky?

I guess that's why he's doing weather, and not astronomy

It was actually part of Libra ...
