Details:
Because Uranus only has a magnitude of 5.88, it is generally hidden in the starry sky even if it is photographed, so it is difficult to judge. Today is just Uranus conjunct the moon, and the two are very close to less than the size of the moon. So when I stepped up the exposure to capture the moon's earthshine, Uranus was clearly next to the moon too! At the same time, a 6.9-magnitude star above the moon was also photographed, which can just be used as a reference. This morning, the moon did not appear until about 4:20 am, and the sky was too bright at about 4:40 am. So lucky to be able to catch the moon, earthshine and Uranus in just 20 minutes! So happy.
