    B Possible to see the moons of Jupiter/Saturn with decent set of binoculars?

    My wife & I were driving west on US70 near the state line of Colorado / Kansas. We stopped for a rest and it was an incredibly dark sky. With our binoculars we could see several moons around Jupiter. The moons were tiny dots around Jupiter.

    Popocatépetl volcano erupts in Mexico - March 31, 2016

    The ground around this volcano is very rich and was used by many farmers. They are very reluctant to leave the area. I wonder if they escaped.
