Venus: Observations
Scientific paper
Fourteen observers from Germany, Italy, and the United States submitted photovisual observations to the ALPO Venus Section during the 2002 Eastern (Evening) Apparition. This report is a summary of the results of those observations. Data resources and types of telescopes and accessories used in making Venus observations are discussed. Comparative studies deal with observers, instruments, and visual and photographic results. The report includes illustrations and a statistical analysis of the long-established categories of features in the atmosphere of Venus, including cusps, cusp-caps, and cusp-bands, seen or suspected at visual wavelengths, both in integrated light and with color filters. Terminator irregularities and the apparent phase are discussed, as well as coverage based on results from continued monitoring of the dark hemisphere of Venus for the enigmatic Ashen Light.
