Project Jupiter uses both observations of any of Jupiter's moons and mathematical data derived from the observations to determine their orbital period.
Project Jupiter has five goals, each of which is worthy of the effort involved in completing this project, and each within the reach of members of the American Association of Amateur Astronomers, as well as any interested amateur astronomer.
Project Jupiter relies on the mathematical fact that the orbital period of a satellite, moon or planet is a fundamental parameter that is used to describe the relation of one object to another.
