Hi guys and girls,
Just a quick question on what I can expect to see with my Old Meade 8" SCT when looking at Galaxy's. It's mounted on a Supr Polaris EQ mount with a Meade goto drive all sitting on a moveable pier
I still don't have my tracking sorted well enough for long time exposures but with the Galaxy fields in Leo and surrounds coming into play now it's a perfect oportunity for me to try my luck at finding and viewing them.
So can I expect to see much and what eye pieces should I be using etc, I also have a 2X doubler I purchased recently and I would dearly love to look at M104 the Sombrero Galaxy as it's also up now as you will know.
Very greatful for any help.
Nico.
