Zodiacal Light


(Photo taken at AstroAdventure Astronomy Holidays in Devon by Derek Rowley – February 2015)

Best time to see:  3rd – 6th March and 23rd – 31st March 2019

The Zodiacal Light is a good target for the naked-eye because of its large size,
another way to capture by using a camera fitted with a wide-angle lens.

Zodiacal Light
It’s produced by the dust when along the plane of the ecliptic scatters sunlight to make the result in a white glow stretching along the ecliptic from the Sun below the horizon.
