Details:
I took the photo the same day, with the same optical equipment and the same angle. Of course they were not so close to each other. This software was brought closer to each other.
The aim is to see and compare the phases of both celestial bodies side by side, and to provide information about their visual dimensions.
The diameter of Venus is 12.102 km. The diameter of the Moon is 3,474 km.
Although the diameter of Venus is about 3.5 times larger than the diameter of the Moon, the reason why it is seen in the photo is that the Moon is 383.410 km away and Venus is 66.705.000 km away.
For this reason, the apparent diameter of the Moon is 31 arc minutes, and Venus is 38 seconds.
