In this view of Mars approaching opposition in Pisces, we also have a good view of Uranus, which is the faintest naked-eye planet, about a month away from its opposition in Aries. Uranus is at magnitude +5.69 this evening, compared to Mars at magnitude -2.27. I marked the location of the galaxy M74 on the image, but it only becomes visible when the image is stretched to extreme proportions. Unannotated image. |
