  1. 📸 Titan Shadow Transit

    Every 15 years, Saturn’s rings appear edge-on from Earth. The view may be narrow, but it reveals rare transits of Saturn’s moons and their shadows.

    In this image from July 18, Titan crosses Saturn’s face, casting a dark round shadow on its cloud tops.

  2. Missed the best view of all the #planets this week and Andalucia's been uncharacteristically cloudy! But here's a nice view tonight of the #Moon, #Venus (bottom right), and #Jupiter (top left) #PlanetaryAlignment 🔭

  3. I will be very interested to see pictures of the #PlanetaryAlignment especially from any of you who use a professional process, like an eyepiece between the camera and the telescope. I'm going the primitive route, hoping that I don't shake the camera.

    And yes, it's really an arc, not a straight line. I understand elliptical orbit. And maybe it's overhyped, but anything that the world can experience together, like those crazy low latitude Auroras, or the Solar Eclipse, are the kinds of events which make me feel a connection to everyone.

  13. Have you heard about the "planetary alignment" coming up on January 25? 🌌🪐

    If you're on social media, by now you've probably seen the breathless announcement of a #planetaryalignment on January 25, 2025. These videos claim all 8 #planets will be in a line on one side of the #sun and visible in our nighttime sky. Is it true? Nope. But there are 6 planets in our evening sky in January. And yes, they're in a line ... like always.

  16. Here a is my photo of the planetary alignment. It is a combination of two photos. One earlier to get Jupiter and Mercury before they set and one when it was darker to get Uranus and Mars. The positions are highlighted in the second image. Mercury, Jupiter, and Uranus might not show up in the image after it is reduced for social media, but I promise it is there 😆. #planetaryalignment #mars #uranus #venus #mercury #jupiter #sunset #evening #nikon #nokonz5 #astrophotography #apod

  17. usatoday.com/story/news/nation planetary alignment will happen March 28, allowing people to see five planets – Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Uranus – in the night sky towards the end of March, Star Walk says.
    The #planetaryalignment will happen the evening of March 28, Star Walk said. It'll be visible a few days before and after, but March 28 will be the best day for viewing.
    How to see the planetary alignment
    The best time for viewing will be to face the horizon, or west, after sunset #Astronomy
