Cheers Patrick but no need to remove your eyes, a 16" dob gives a great view of this little bugger particularly in good seeing, I recall looking at it through a 24" F3.3 at SPSP a few years ago and it was amazing ..in fact I spent 3hrs one night with it looking at lots of things and I was blown away with the amount of stuff I could see in objects I had imaged before
