Venus and its "horns" at inferior conjunction, October 24 2026
Any use of one of these images other than strictly private must be subject to prior authorization from legault@astrophoto.fr
Around inferior conjunction, when Venus is between the Sun and us, its thick atmosphere refracts and scatters the sunlight and extends its crescent beyond the usual 180°
