I wanted to know if anyone has ever observed lght being bent by jupiters 
gravitational field, i dont want to know if it is posible i 
want to know if someone has recorded it, i have asked a few people and all 
they say is "yes it does", this i stress is not an exceptable answer.
I figured that we should easily be able to measure the minute amounts 
which jupiter's gravity bends light.
Thanking you in advance, Daniel
