The French astrophotograph Gwenael Blank took photos of the Moon, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune and created one composite image on the basis of these pictures. Each participant in the planet parade was removed with the same increase, which means that they are ideally scaling, writes Live Science.

In a new composite photo, you can see six worlds of the solar system posted in the so -called planets in the so -called planet, which are located next to the moon. This composite photo offers a rare opportunity to compare the size of all these worlds, as they are visible from the ground.

The form combined photos of the moon, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Neptune and Uranus. The astrophotographer also took a photograph of Venus and the Moon, which lined up in a row over the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

To create photographs of the planets and Earth's satellite, a digital camera was used, attached to the telescope. In the composite image, all objects are placed as it moves away from our planet, that is, first there is a moon, then Venus, after it is Mars, and then there are gas giants Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

According to the form, there is no Mercury in an integral photo, because it will be clearly visible only at the end of February. It was easiest to make images of the moon, Mars, Jupiter and Uranus, because they were high in the sky.

Of course, all these worlds of the solar system were not in a perfectly even location in the sky, but the form used the same increase in increased for each image, which means that the sizes of these objects are ideally scalid.

For this reason, the moon looks so huge compared to Uranus and Neptune, and Venus and Jupiter seem about the same size, although the last planet is about 10 times the first. According to the form, this composite image gives a good idea of \u200b\u200bthe visible size of each planet.

At the same time, over the next few weeks, you can see the impressive alignment of the planets, when several planets of the solar system at once when observing the Earth line up close to each other on one side of the sun and are visible simultaneously. This phenomenon is often called the planet parade.

If there are good conditions, that is, at least a very dark and not contaminated sky, then the naked eye can be seen at once five planets at the same time: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. At the same time, to see the dull Uranus and Neptune, you will need a telescope.

Around the end of February, early March, the peak of alignment of the planets will come when all seven planets will be built in an almost straight line in the night sky.

As Focus already wrote, on February 14 in the night sky the brightest planet will be Venus.

Focus also wrote that physicists discovered a ghostly particle with the highest energy. The energy of this elementary particle is 30,000 times more than it can create a large adron collider when the particles accelerates.
