Phosphor 11,522 July 26, 2018 Share July 26, 2018 The weather has been great this week, so I've been enjoying the clear nights. Venus and Mercury go through phases like our Moon. It is currently around 50% phase and will slowly brighten and become a crescent as it gets closer to Earth. When viewed thru a telescope, only the phase can be seen as the surface is permanently covered with clouds. However, when viewed in the Ultraviolet spectrum, cloud patterns become visible. 1st image is in Near IR. 2nd is in UV-A. Enjoy! Telescope: Celestron C8 Camera: ZWO ASI178MM Venus from 1 month ago in UV-A. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
