Description:
Mars-Regulus Conjunction A planet (Mars) and a star (Regulus) that put on a show in the sky of June 2025 with a suggestive conjunction due to the different colors, reddish for the planet and blue-white for the star. Both shone at magnitude 1.4 and were very visible after sunset. The distance between the two celestial bodies is enormous even if in the photo they seem perspectively close The photo is the sum of about 100 shots with exposures of 2 seconds and a gain of 100.
