during theevening of the14th of december,my wife andI stepped on theback deck of the house that faces northand looked to the eastern skylooking for jupitor,uponobserving that,moments later my wife and I observed another object westerly of jupitor and appeared to mirror jupitor insize and brightnes.No other object was the size,altitude and bright as this object except jupitor.After observing the object for several minutes it dissapered.My feeling was one of awe,that we have not seen a similiar object in the sky the same night,of this size and distance.
