Sometimes I Wish...

 ...I was rich enough to spontaneously travel to the other side of the world. Because fortunate people in Africa are going to get to see Europa's shadow.

Yes.

Europa's.

Europa will be occulting a 10th magnitude star in the constellation Pisces early morning on June 19 (local time).

And if you do happen to be in southern Africa and willing to get up early, the Paris Observatory wants you to time the transit and send them their data, which will help ESA astronomers with their math. (europaocc2022.imccce(at)obspm.fr).
