Venus at 0.7% today, 80 hours to conjunction

[shahgazer (Shah)]

Hi guys,

Today, for the 3rd day in a row, Venus is spotted again. The thinning crescent is only 0.7% illuminated, and at a distance 7 deg from the Sun.

Here is a compilation of 3 different dates, starting from 2nd Jan (left), and ending on today 8th Jan (right).

Very interesting to see how fast it changes in just within 5 days!
