Along with the Fornax galaxy guide in the Sky and Space mag i tried the tour of multiple stars in Erindanus on page 88. Both great articles and kept me busy to well over midnight . 15 stars all up and was very enjoyable in tandem with the magazine text , although the sky was a little unsteady to pump up the magx. Worth a try if your keen :astron:

Fornax and Eridanus are great parts of the sky.

Magazines such as sky and space etc, have great articles that one can use for a night or two observing.

The article by Ian Sansom re Starhopping was very good and these are the sort of articles i really enjoy.

I really like looking at ngc 1365, you can see the arms and the bigger the scope the brighter they get.

Best.
