Venus at 0.4%

The conditions needed for conjunction day finally occurred 3 days later, allowing this view of the crescent, about 76h after conjunction. It reminded me why Venus is my favourite planet.

Phase 0.39%
Elongation 5.1°


Central part is overexposed to better record the cusp extensions.

8"dob @f/18, ASI120MM, Astronomik 742IR

This concludes my effort around the great inferior conjunction of 2020. Next one is in 8 years' time.
