An unusual double transit of Jupiter's moons, Europa and Ganymede, will occur on the night of Oct. 30/31, starting at 00:15 UT. (Sunday, Oct. 31, 2:15am, IST) The black shadow of both Europa and Ganymede will be visible on the planet at the same time, while Europa itself will also be visible as a bright dot transiting the disk of the planet.
