Today, stargazers across Brunei captured a stunnin

Today, stargazers across Brunei captured a stunning lunar occultation of Jupiter.
Swipe through to see the exact stages - from Jupiter’s approach to the bright lunar limb, to the ingress (entry), and all the way to the final egress (reappearance). Perfecting a sequence like this takes incredible precision!

Wait for the moment Jupiter disappears! Captured

Wait for the moment Jupiter disappears!
Captured this incredible daytime lunar occultation live from Tutong, Brunei Darussalam today at 6:10 AM (Nov 3, 2026).
Watch closely as Jupiter glides behind the edge of the Moon and slips out of view.
Occultations like this are a rare treat to witness, especially during daylight hours. In fact, the next chance to see Jupiter hide behind the Moon won't come until April 12, 2038 in Brunei Darussalam.

A Rare Celestial Disappearance: Jupiter & the Moon
If tomorrow's sky is clear, look east before sunrise to see the crescent Moon pass directly in front of Jupiter. Fully visible across Brunei, the planet disappears at 06:13 am in BSB and reappears at 06:30 am (check the table for other districts). Brunei won't see this again until April 2038, so capture this rare event and share your photos at bruneiastronomy.org/contribute

Lessons from the ZQ-2E Space Debris Reentry
Who is responsible?
Reentry predicted by international tracking organizations. Final orbital passes were recorded over Poland before the atmospheric breakup of the ZQ-2E rocket body was observed across Brunei Darussalam and the surrounding region. The object's final trajectory crossed Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, where debris was subsequently recovered near Sampit.
