Mars comparison at CM147deg 17th Nov. v 27th Dec. 2020

About this image

Coincidentally, on 27th Dec., I imaged exactly the same face as on 17th Nov., when Mars was a much larger 16.6" across, and the planet's central meridian was the same 147°. Here is the comparison. How quicky Mars departs us........
