When you clearly see a bright spot near the moon (not in the pic), zoom in the most you can, and get this picture of Jupiter with its moons
From left to right, the bright spots according to my stargazing app: Ganymede, Europa, Io, Jupiter (the brightest) and Callisto

"Taken by NASA's Juno spacecraft, this black-and-white photo of the surface of Jupiter's icy moon Europa reveals a curious feature – shaped somewhat like the musical symbol for a quarter note – surrounded by a vast network of linear ridges and dark blotches. It was obtained by Juno's Stellar Reference Unit (SRU) during the spacecraft's Sept. 29, 2022, flyby of Europa."

Trusting my stargazing app, this bright light in the night sky seems to be Jupiter 👀
I wouldn't venture into affirming the tiny little spots of light around the planet are its moons, clearly they are very far away and I'm not sure my camera would capture them... but if they are its moons, then that's a very cool stargazing moment ^^

Jupiter has auroras - what we call the northern or southern lights - in its upper atmosphere. And we've seen auroras on all 4 of Jupiter's large Galilean moons, too. Previously, scientists had observed auroras on Jupiter's moons primarily at ultraviolet wavelengths. But now astronomers have made visible light observations of new auroras on Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto.
