Default Venus from the 27th

Pete Lawrence nous a écrit :

Seeing was very poor for this. The planet was boiling violently,
probably due to a neighbour's bungalow. Why do they have to turn the
heating on in cold weather - I ask you!! ;-)


Strange idea, isn't it
Looking at Venus yesterday (today it is under the clouds) with binoculars, I
was surprised to be able to clearly see the planet as a thin crescent. Nice
view for the end of this year.
