 With binoculars, one can sometimes see tiny pinpricks of light
around Jupiter -- the Galilean moons.
 

This is what pisses me off most about my monocular diplopia[1]. 20-20 vision but it doesn't allow me to distinguish things clearly, even through telescope or binoculars. And I love looking at the stars.
[1]Double vision in a eye. I see overlapping images. For example, I'm looking at a candle flame, one eye shut, and I still see two images overlapping vertically, although one is dimmer. No correction for it. My ophthalmologist can't find a reason, such as Corneal scarring or damage, and it may be my eyes are just old.
