The 2019–’20 eastern elongation of Venus, Part II: Observations of the nightside
Presented here is an analysis and discussion of observations made of the nocturnal hemisphere during the 2019–’20 eastern elongation of Venus. These observations of the infrared thermal emission are crucial to the Section’s aim of investigating active volcanism on the planet. We also discuss research by professional astronomers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, supporting the idea of active volcanism, and how the results obtained by Section members thus far support this conjecture.
