Never noticed it before... As we know, Stellarium makes planets and moon "glow" to simulate the glare we see, when comparing the solar system objects to stellar objects.
But I never noticed that when a moon of Jupiter is behind the Jovian gas giant, it does not glow. So that means Stellarium shows and predicts when the moons will emerge from their parent's eclipsing shadows! Handy...
