	Uranus 2018
	29^th November2018
	Uranus here afforded us one 12 minute capture using the iR610nm filter which was surprisingly steady given the seeing & elevation. We tried 2 more captures but the wind came up again & transparency as well as seeing went west - in the image below Ariel was quite easy to pick out by raising the levels but almost impossible to determine from noise in these other 2 captures, so they were discarded...due to low elevation, poor seeing & other priorities this is the only Uranus image captured in 2018

	The first image for 2016 – this image, taken on July 14^th - which is considered fairly “early” for the 2016 Uranus apparition/season. The start of an “apparition” is when any planet reappears in the morning sky after it seems to have disappeared into the West in the early evening sky – that is, it is actually getting so close to the Sun before disappearing behind it. (as seen from Earth) Some time later (months in reality) it will “re-appear” in the early morning twilight…the start of the next apparition. We were actually lucky to get this image of Uranus so early in fact…dawn was approaching & being such a dim planet as seen from Earth we only just managed to capture it before the sky became too light to image…& even luckier that we managed to also capture the 5 major moons of Uranus as well! ;)
