Can you imagine what this was like....
a whole night (from dusk to dawn) of visual observing through a 2.5m telescope!....in an observatory steeped with the amount of history like no other....humbling and amazing all at the same time...
a short video as the night was about to start
here
Two stars in the Ring Nebula in Lyra, visible without averted vision, vivid turquoise colour in NGC 6572 The Blue Racquetball nebula, a distinct red ring around Aro 11, also known as Campbell’s Hydrogen Star in the constellation Cygnus...a special and moving night...once in a lifetime experience...
