November 2020 planet fest

October 2020 was when Mars was at it's closest approach to earth after 2005 opposition. 

Also, Jupiter and Saturn were in conjunction or close to each other in November 2020.

Here are some snaps of these two gas giants.

The above Facebook post says it is possible to see and image the moons of Mars. I think I've captured one of them in the snaps above.
