you need significantly more magnification and you need to lower the exposure

Go to an observatory. Colleges usually have them, even small ones. I saw some cool shit going to those.

I'm gonna steal this thread to tell you that I observed Venus during daytime today.
It's in inferior conjunction so it's just a thin crescent right now but that also puts it dangerously close to the Sun in the sky.

My solution was to create a sun shield by tying some plywood to a ladder.

The universe isn't real, all the lights in the sky are really just an interference pattern.

I'm gonna stay on topic so here's Jupiter during daylight.
Shot this 20 minutes after my first post and I've been observing throughout the evening until now and the seeing conditions have been excellent tonight.

Here's 1 hour and 20 minutes later at higher magnification. The moon to the lower right is Callisto.

don't you just like, stack polarizers or some shit. I'm pretty sure you just do that.
