Uranus

Finally nabbed Uranus. Tried for it last year and think I got it, but couldn't see a disk so wasn't sure. This time hopped from 96 Aquarii, then slipped in the 13mm Nagler and sure enough, there was a little blue disc. Very excited. Tried the 6mm Plossl and the disc was slightly bigger but FOV was tiny so hard to hold in view. Any way, it was a thrill.

Now to try Neptune!
