Visible planet sizes in the coming months


Recommended Posts

Appreciate if anyone can share a link that tells how the planet sizes are going to change over the coming months. E.g currently we have Jupiter at 40.75, down from almost 50 two months ago, while Mars gets closer and is currently at 9.75 arcsecs.

Thanks

Mars gets to 13.9 arc seconds in apparent diameter at it's closest approach on March 5th.

Saturn is at opposition on 15 April. The disk will have an apparent diameter of 19.1 arc seconds and the ring system will be 43.3 arc seconds across with a tilt of around 14 degrees.
