12/4/2020 Jupiter and Saturn Conjunction

You’ve heard about the coming conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn. Here is my first picture of it, taken Friday evening (12/4). I used my C11 with Hyperstar and ASI 294MC Pro camera. This is a single image one second long. The field of view is about 2 degrees by 1.2. At this scale there are no details to speak of but you see the moons of Jupiter in the lower right pointing at the oval of Saturn in the upper left. As they get closer, I’ll be able to go to a smaller scale and see more details.
