Venus at maximum elongation from the sun

15 January, 2009 (10:35) | Uncategorized | By: tramakers

HOURS OF VENUS: Today and for the rest of the week, Venus is at maximum elongation (greatest apparent distance) from the sun. This means the silvery planet is “up” for more than three hours after sunset. Go outside after dark, face south, and take a long look. Currently Venus is almost a half disk.

Anyone up for a nice image of Venus at this stage?

Clear Skies,
