Hi everyone
,
I've been a little busy with school and then there where days when it was cloudy but on this day it was clear and i had no homework
.So i took out the scope(130mm) and set it up.
Castor double star
Castor is a very bright double star with what i depicted as being of yellow colour,but i has very poor conditions with relatively high winds so it was blurry and couldn't grab any good focus.The field in which castor is not very interesting with only 3 other faint stars but the showcase is Castor.I also did a sketch (attached) by using a #2 mechanical pencil on white paper and then inverted it and added some colour.
NGC 3201
Fairly bright glob which is not so condensed in the middle like other globs i have observed.nice glob
.
Jewel Box Cluster (ngc 4755)
It is a oc of many stars at close inspection but what really grabs your attention is those 7 bright stars which make an A shape.The central star is a nice red star.I think the 10mm ep (90x) framed the oc beautifully.
Was going to try and do a sketch but i had school the next day and couldn't stay up too late.
I was trying to find the the eight burst nebula but couldn't find it.
Thanks for reading
