Astronomers and cosmologists have expressed great interest in viewing the celestial miracle, while an international team of physicists, intrigued by the redisovered planet's complete lack of gravity, are studying the Jovian system - from the safety of local pub, the Event Horizon.

Prof challenges Jovian madness
However, despite all the evidence, Noble prize-winning physicist Franz Idlesöd, speaking from his observatory on Mount Vesuvius in northern Italy, remains skeptical: "But, of course, this is impossible! The Jovian system was probably absorbed by a black hole..." He explains: "This can only be a manifestion of exotic physics. I suspect it is nothing more than a 'dimensional window' of some kind, and Jupiter is not really 'there' at all. We have seen this sort of weirdness before, many times, with eveything from ghosts to flying saucers [chuckles]!" The Professor, acclaimed throughout the scientific community for proving that Albert Einstein was Polish, also said "I predict this 'window' is a transient phenomenon and it will 'close' before the current lunar cycle is over."
Jupiter discovery!
by Fulsom Lobotomy

An apprentice mechanic from Mattocks Clodbury has found the lost planet Jupiter in his garage. The astounding story began on Saturday morning when the young man, who has claimed anonymity from media exposure under UK privacy laws, went to fetch a left-handed spanner from the toolbox in his lockup garage.

He was shocked to find that the awesome gas giant and all of its moons had taken up residence in the quiet darkness of his small garage and workshop, which is rented from the local council. A scholarly neighbour claimed this was a "profound event" in the history of the Solar system, and he alerted FAX 21 immediately. Shortly thereafter, an assistant researcher from our busy science desk was able to confirm that this was indeed the lost planet Jupiter (which vanished from its usual orbit in 1984), after he had counted its family of moons and identified the famous red spot.

FAX 21 has also received some unconfirmed reports that 3 wise men from the east have begun a holy pilgrimage to the garage.
