M42 magnificent tonight through the 12”
Just come in from observing a few DSO’s tonight with my Skywatcher 12” GoTo Dob down the south coast
M42 in particular was amazingly clear with nebulosity stretching across most of the FOV of my 21mm Ethos eye piece. Trapezium was tac sharp and could make out the running man men as well
Really good seeing tonight when the cloud finally cleared around 9.45pm
Observed a few open clusters , 47 Tuc and Carina
Very happy with the 12” Dob , tracking is good and goto is very good, this is only my 4th time out using it after buying it in late October
Cheers
