See it! Elusive Uranus at opposition
Uranus - most distant planet visible, barely, to the unaided eye - was opposite the sun this week. Here's Uranus on October 20 by Greg Redfern in Virginia. He wrote, "Uranus was visible to my unaided eye but much more colorful in the picture. It took 157 minutes for the light from Uranus to reach my eyes and camera." More photos here.
