Details:
Last Friday I took advantage of the clear sky to try to capture the red planet, which this month has reached the opposition and is therefore in the best conditions to be observed. In the photo you can see the North polar ice cap, in the center the region called Elysium Planitia and the Syrtis Major on the western edge. The turbulence was clearly visible but the planet very high in the sky allowed me to make a decent shot of the planet.
