List recognised by Astronomical League

Hi all,

The list has just been added by the Astronomical League as an extension list to their Southern Skies Telescopic Club.

http://www.astroleague.org/al/obsclu...y/sskytele.htm

The sad news is you don’t get a formal Astronomical League award or certificate for observing the list. It has been included as something more advanced and an extension of their Southern Skies Telescopic Club. It does give you something to work towards, if you are looking for something challenging with a medium aperture scope.

It's worth keeping in mind that just over 5 years ago there were no Southern Hemisphere lists or awards of any description so there is a fair chance this list could progress to the next level, if there is some interest in it and positive feedback to the astronomical league by the members.

Cheers,
John B
