However, this is an illusion as the moon is 375,700 km from Earth and Venus is 185 million km away from us. Stargazers described the sight as the moon and Venus being “in conjunction”, i.e.

No, it’s the planet Venus – the brightest natural object that can be seen in the sky with the naked eye, apart from the sun and moon. The phenomenon is believed to herald the beginning of the astrological new year, and marks the time for resetting a new chapter in one’s life. Is the celestial orb a burning star?

Yesterday was a magical night for selenophiles when the moon and Venus shone brightly together during a rare conjunction.

In effect they would be along the same line of sight (but still far away from each other). [Venus](https://www.indiatimes.com/trending/environment/nasa-shares-pic-of-rare-transit-between-sun-venus-573361.html) and Moon will be involved in an event known as conjunction when they would "appear" to come very close to each other to an observer from planet. Today Venus and Moon will be involved in an event known as conjunction when they would "appear" to come very close to each other to an observer from planet 🌍. The celestial bodies were visible in the same line of sight, staying close together until Venus gradually receded behind the Moon.

Want to photograph planet Venus? Here are 3 astrophotography experiments to try, including diffraction spikes, dispersion and imaging Venus's shadow.

In other words, the bending is greater at lower altitude. A mid to high ISO and low f/ number are essential. Either way, you’ll need a screen on which the shadow will be cast. You’ll need a shadow-casting subject as well. The effect is noticeable around the edge of the Moon, but the brilliance of Venus means it’s easier to stay with the effect at lower altitude. Attach a camera to the scope and, using a mid-value ISO, focus (the spikes are useful for this) and take a shot of Venus, using an exposure of a few seconds. Even a bright sky can interfere. In a darkened room, attach a shape to a window pane to act as a shadow caster – in this case a cardboard cutout of the symbol of Venus. Another interesting effect to see with Venus is something which is a nuisance for planetary imaging: atmospheric dispersion (hence the existence of A high ISO is recommended to keep the exposure times short; take too long and the razor-sharp edge of the shadow will blur as Venus moves relative to the horizon. A west or northwest-facing window is ideal for capturing the shadow of Venus. A west or northwest-facing window is ideal, as long as you can turn all of the lights off.
