Neptune+Triton & Uranus' moons

[nytecam]

Both planets are wellplaced in the early evening to the south - here my quick 5sec shots from last night. 

A 'star' close to Neptune is invariably Triton.  Uranus has four 'brightish' moons.  I use Cartes du Ciel to ID them. The planets are glossly over-exposed

very nice, not easy to capture

These esoteric targets are among my favorites! It's only recently that we are giving them "the light of day" they deserve. Thank you for posting these not commonly seen entities.

I should imagine these were difficult to capture, Anyone know the magnitudes of the Moons, I have to try them from here without a camera.

Alan - Jackpot!

I looked for a reference to the magnitudes of the Moons of all the planets, and, finally, Pay-Off!

Phew! Now I see why you couldn't find them. I suggest bookmarking this site.
