Saturn was my first Astronomy "Wow" as a 7 year old, but 48 years later, Jupiter fascinates me the most. Being able to watch the mechanics of a mini solar system in action with satellite and shadow transits, occultations and eclipses and appreciate what is happening, never ceases to amaze. I make good use of the 'Jupiter Moon Events' pages in the annual Astronomy Australia guide. Setting up someone to unexpectedly watch their first satellite eclipse is fun.
