The planet Jupiter is the bright object overhead in the night sky. I imaged it and the four Galilean moons earlier this evening with a 4½" reflector telescope. The moons from left to right are: Io, Ganymede, Europa and Callisto.

Wow that’s really awesome. Space is something that fascinates and terrifies me. Post more if you have ‘em!

That is amazing. I'm completely serious.

Your avatar is hot, too.

The moons are visible on clear nights with a decent pair of binoculars

It's a natural satellite we call Moon. You need to catch up on some deGrasse Tyson.
