Venus and the moon from last night 2 April 2023

It was such a change to have a beautiful clear and calm night. We set up before sunset to have another go at Venus. We used Wratten #47 & IR cut filters, ASI174MM, 6"SCT, 2.5x Barlow, exposure 10ms, gain 200, ROI 640x480, FPS 100, 120 sec 8bit AVI, stacked 75% and sharpened in WaveSharp. Taken at 5:51pm, the sun was behind the house. Elevation 19 degrees.

Later we took a four panel mosaic of the moon.

We then did stray a little outside the solar system (oops).
