Details:
Even under Full Moon, there was a bright pass of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) by the three bright morning planets, Mars, Saturn and Venus at its maximum -4.9 mag. Using Canon T4i, 75mm f/4, iso 3200, 5s exp on tripod I caught HST m1.3 passing above Mars, then passing Saturn and finally fading to m4.5 as it passed Venus. TheSkyXPro chart shows the full path and the Venus/HST shot is enlarged to show the very close pass. Time was 2014/02/15 UT 12:31-5
