Giant Planets at Dusk and Dawn (Dawn)

Original paragraph

Jupiter shines at magnitude -2.1 or -2.2 near the southwestern corner of Aries. It rises about 2 hours before the sun on June 1st, but 4hours early on June 30th. But the best time to observe it telescopically is when it'[s higher, in morning twilight.

My paraphrase

JUpiter has a magnitude of -2.1 or -2.2. You can see it 2hours before sunrise on June 1st and 4 hours before on June 30th. But, the best time to see it is twilight.

  1. Good, but you are missing some details. In your paraphrase you didn't mention where you could see Jupiter.
