Jupiter
Hey Rob .
I saw the same thing last night ... the Moons are pretty much in a straight line ( sort of ) with the Planet ... the 4 brighter Moons stick out like the " proverbial " but you can definitely see a " fainter " ( what appears to be ) another Moon... on the left hand side of Jupiter.
I was using my ED102 .... with a " 2 x barlowed " 24mm Tak eyepiece.
The Bands were easily seen last night from my location ... and even a " hint " of the Red Spot using " averted " vision.
