Here is how moon looks from my window under 20x optical zoom.

There is nothing special about picture, but I wonder if it I could expect anything meaningful if I try on Venus, Mars, Jupiter or Saturn. (Phases and/or moons) I guess not, objective lens is not big enough. Google sky helps to locate them, but there is no clear sky in the center of Munich so far.
