The planet disc looked green-grey and was larger than 44 Piscium. The star appeared much more of a red-orange color. Defocused image showed very similar brightness for these two objects. Visual appearance was similar to a very bright planetary nebula near a bright star. Very unsusual and beautiful sight! |
