On the last day of the month, at the second hour, two satellites on the east side were visible, and one on the west (Fig. 29). Of the satellites east of the planet, the one in the middle was 2´ 20´´ distant from Jupiter; and the satellite further to the east was 0´ 30´´ from the middle satellite; the satellite on the west was at a distance of 10´ from Jupiter. They were in the same straight line nearly, and would have been exactly so, only the satellite on the east nearest to Jupiter was raised a little towards the north. At the fourth hour, the two satellites on the east were still nearer together, for they were only 20´´ apart (Fig. 30). The western satellite appeared rather small in these two observations. Feb. 1.—At the second hour of the night the arrangement was similar (Fig. 31). The satellite furthest to the east was at a distance of 6´ from Jupiter, and the western satellite 8´. On the east side there was a very small satellite, at a distance of 20´´ from Jupiter. They made a perfectly straight line. Feb. 2.—The satellites were seen arranged thus (Fig. 32). There was one only on the east, at a distance of 6´ from Jupiter. Jupiter was 4´ from the nearest satellite on the west; between this satellite and the satellite further to the west there was an interval of 8´; they were in the same straight line exactly, and were nearly of the same magnitude. But at the seventh hour four satellites were there—two on each side of Jupiter (Fig. 33). Of these satellites, the most easterly was at a distance of 4´ from the next; this satellite was 1´ 40´´ from Jupiter; Jupiter was 6´ from the nearest satellite on the west, and this one from the satellite further to the west, 8´; and they were all alike in the same straight line, drawn in the direction of the Zodiac. Feb. 3: 7 h.—The satellites were arranged in the following way (Fig. 34):—The satellite on the east was at a distance of 1´ 30´´ from Jupiter; the nearest satellite on the west, 2´, and there was a long distance, 10´, from this satellite to the satellite further to the west. They were exactly in the same straight line, and of equal magnitude.
