Computed from the actual motion

The nearest Jupiter retrogrades either side of 2001

Previous

Next

2002 Begins 22 November 2001 and runs 100 days.

Gap across 2001

0.8 years between the two — long enough for a whole calendar year to fall inside it with nothing to report.

Both dates are computed from the planet’s apparent motion, not taken from a table. A retrograde begins the moment its daily movement against the stars turns negative, and that moment is findable to the hour.
