A collection of Venus images taken from my observatory in the period April-July 2022.

The images combine Infrared, 820-920nm, and Ultraviolet, 320-380nm, data.

A Cloud discontinuity is also visible in one of the images.

The setup used:C14 Edge HD, Fornax52 mount, ASI 290mono, FFC Badder Barlow, Baader UV320-380nm, Baader SLOAN z-s'820-920nm.

Image Description and Details : I have taken this picture on Réunion Island, I used my C11 with asi224mc. the phenomenon was very low, 10 degrees above the horizon only. I had to prepare my shooting location well, between roofs, relay antenna and palm trees.

Using the same gear as yesterday, the N150/750, the motorized filter wheel, the green and Calcium K line filters and the cooled ASI 178MM, all guided by the soapbox, I imaged Venus. On this day the atmosphere was kind enough to allow me to photograph not only a still, but also the movement, even though the second frame shows a considerable decrease in details.

The phases of Venus are the variations of lighting seen on the planet's surface, similar to lunar phases. The first recorded observations of them are thought to have been telescopic observations by Galileo Galilei in 1610.

 I share you a picture who represents for me the link between humans on the ground and stars in the sky. Indeed, I'm located at one of the best sky of the world to practice astronomy.
We can see my figure touching a star. Well, this is not a star but the planet Venus.

Venus the second planet from the Sun and the third brightest object in Earth's sky after the Sun and Moon. It is sometimes referred to as the sister planet to Earth, because their size and mass are so similar. The surface of Venus is hidden by an opaque layer of clouds which are formed from sulfuric acid. The planet is named for Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty and is the second largest terrestrial planet.

On April 9, 2020 this beautiful image of Venus was taken the atmosphere is clearly visible and nice cloud shapes in the UV band can be seen.

Captured in a single day

Jupiter and Mars are in color with a 2xBarlow and Venus in UV and Mercury in IR in prime focus (2x enlarged).
