Three days after our image of November 30, we see Venus significantly closer to the Capricornus border than before. And now the Moon has joined the scene, in this case situated in the middle of the handle of the Teapot asterism, which demonstrates how far south of the ecliptic it is during 2024. On this evening, Venus is magnitude -4.18 and a diameter of 17.49" arcseconds. Unannotated image |
