Details:
Venus can no longer be seen in the evening sky, as it comes very close to the Sun from our point of view. It can be seen on the eastern horizon just before sunrise in the morning from January 20, 2022.
From our point of view, Venus enters the crescent phase as it approaches the Sun. Today at noon, I found Venus, which is 5 degrees away from the Sun, in my telescope and took an image. Actually, this shot is pretty dangerous. Sunlight enters the tube and is reflected from the mirror and focused outside the tube.
If the sun's rays are reflected on the secondary mirror, the camera will turn on immediately. There is always such a risk as Venus appears very close to the Sun.
