I just finished to process the images I took last night of the
Jupiter-Moon conjunction. It was a bit cloudy over here but I managed to
get a glimpse of the event between the clouds. The scene was already
impressive with the naked eye but the view through the eyepiece was
absolutely amazing! It's not everyday that one can see the belts of
Jupiter and the craters on the Moon in the same field of view! The
biggest planet in the Solar System and the biggest object in the night
sky side by side. A Christmas to remember!
