Moons of Jupiter

I was so pleased to find a camera that can photograph what I can see through my telescope. There are 4 moons of Jupiter visible although the one furthest out on the left is much fainter. It was this view that got Galileo into trouble because he noticed that as the nights went by, the moons went round Jupiter and changed position. This was clear proof that the assertion that everything in the universe revolves around the Earth could not be true.
