Venus 20th Feb 2020

Terrible seeing this evening, but I managed some detail on Venus with Baader UV and IR filters.

c. 7000 frames for each channel. Green channel made from 50% UV and 50% IR . 3x Televue Barlow, Omegon RC8 (effective focal length 4800) and a ZWO ASI 290MM Mini Mono camera.

Maybe, just maybe, will have a still evening. I think under steady skies, the clouds through the UV filter could look superb.

Still a bit showing despite the conditions. Always worth a short session on Venus whenever there is a clear sky.
