Title: Venus Observations
Post by: Rocket Pooch on May 13, 2004, 06:00:00
During the past few months Venus has obviously been prominent.  I've made it a habit to try to get an image for the past few weeks.  I did get one set on Monday so here's the sequence.

Sorry about the orientation with the last one.

I think Venus is about as thin as its going to get now.
