Tonight (June 27, 2006) I saw five moons of Jupiter through a pair of
25X100 binos. There were four, in a single plane, which I assume were the
Galilean Moons. The fifth was above that plane, on the right hand side
(remember that my image was not reversed in either way) about half way (or
centered )between the two moons in the plane and about half that distance
above the plane.
Is there an ephemeris of some sort that will help confirm what I saw and
identify that moon ?
In ASCII art I saw
?

where J is the plante's disk, the full stops are the four Galilean moons
(I think) and the question mark is the object I'm trying to identify. The
time was around 9:30 EDT.
Thanks
