Uranus compared to the 400 mm Zeiss Cassegrain and the Hubble image

Today we'd like to present an image taken by our astronomy friend Uwe Meiling with his Zeiss Cassegrain 400/6635 telescope.

Uranus compared to the 400 mm Zeiss Cassegrain image and the Hubble image.

Uranus orbits the Sun at a distance of approximately 2.8 billion kilometers! Therefore, it takes a full 84 years for it to complete one orbit, thus completing a Uranian year. 84 Earths could fit inside Uranus.
