I was wondering.
If Venus reflects 70 percent of the sunlight that hits it. If I was in spaceship on approach to that planet could I look at it with the naked eye out the window and not get blinded? Would I have to at least use sunglasses? I am wondering to how much brightness reduction is going on when processing the images before they are release to public or analized. thanks |

This morning's photo of a skyscape including Venus and Saturn is at my blog (at 3MB, too big for this server)
