Capture images of planets from the summit of "Mount Hafeet" in Al Ain

The team at the International Center for Astronomy has collected distinctive images of the planets from the summit of Mount Hafeet in Al Ain, where the clear atmosphere allows high-resolution images.

The Center set up a three-day observation camp during the period from 19 to 21 July at the summit of Mount Hafeet

The Director of the International Center for Astronomy, Mohamed Shaukat Odeh, stated that observations began as soon as the sun went down. It appears in the west after sunset, the brightest object of the sky after the sun and the moon, where it appears as a very bright white object and can be seen at the eye naked in daylight.

Then the telescopes sent the telescope to the moon, and watched and photographed many of the craters of the moon, and the smallest lunar eclipse could be seen through the surveillance devices is only 2 km away.

The observation team turned the telescope towards Jupiter, and it looked like a very bright white object, and it is currently on the south side after sunset, the team was able to see and photograph many of Jupiter's phenomena. The brightest of its four satellites, with 79 satellites, was detected after the discovery of 12 new satellites a few days ago.

The red giant spot was visible on the tablet and clearly photographed One of the most beautiful phenomena observed and photographed is the shadow of one of the satellites of Jupiter on his record, which appears as a small black dot, And this phenomenon is a solar eclipse on the planet Jupiter because of one of his moons, and has filmed a lot of weather phenomena on the disc of the planet. buyer, including both belts that appear clearly in the picture. “/>

The telescope was oriented towards Saturn and its rings were clearly visible: because of the pure and pure atmosphere, observers could see the line Cassini, a thin black line separating his rings, In the case of the finesse of the atmosphere, in addition to the rings were seen and photographed atmospheric phenomena on his record such as Saturn's belts and clearly appeared in the picture.

On July 25, the Moon will be only two degrees from the planet Saturn, so that the evening can be seen at the moon to observe the observer the presence of a brilliant golden color, c & # 39; 39, is the planet Saturn.

Finally, the telescopes turned the telescope to Mars, and were able to photograph the icebergs on the surface, which is a frozen water visible on the poles of the planet. image, in addition to some Mars Surface, an extensive rocky area.

Mars is currently experiencing dust storms, making the view of these parameters more difficult, when the weather conditions on Mars and without the dust storms then appear darker on the surface more clearly. Mars will be Tuesday, July 31, at the closest distance to Earth, "58 million km," the closest distance between the two planets since 2003, visible at nightfall to the naked eye.

The surveillance team used the latest techniques of global imaging, using a 10-inch telescope and using a sophisticated astronomical camera capable of capturing 125 images per second. Is a collection of four thousand images one above the other.

Observers also used several surveillance elements that improve surveillance, and then processed images using several specialized astronomical programs.

Many observers present in the area were involved in the surveillance, the team explained these phenomena to the public, and they observed the planets at the naked eye and through the imagery astronomical
