    Vesta is a giant asteroid in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. It's the second most massive object in the belt, and the brightest asteroid in the solar system. This image obtained by the framing camera on NASA's Dawn spacecraft shows the south pole.

    The Solar System to Scale by Angular Size in our Sky

    This is the solar system to scale by how big they appear in our sky relative to each other. You’ll notice just how huge Venus looks dud to its proximity (and that phase isn’t even closest approach. At absolute closest, it appears larger than Jupiter). Phobos and Deimos are only visible in the full resolution due to how far in you have to zoom.

    C9.25, ASI662MC, UV/IR Cut for all (350nm UV and 850nm IR for Venus, 685nm for Uranus), 2x barlow. 3-4 videos at 2-3 minutes derotated on WinJupos, processed on Registax6 and Lightroom.

    The moon DOES have subtle color, only visible through enhancing.

    6se and S24 is what I used. Just turned up the saturation A LOT.
