It was clear here this morning. I started out using 20x80 binoculars and looked at all the globulars I could think of (including M4,80,19,62,10,12,53,3,55,54,70,22, 28,68 NGC 104,362,5139,5286,4833,4372,2808,32 01,6752,6388,6541,6441,6397) and some galaxies (including M65,66,84,86,87,58,59,60,83,104 NGC4945,5128,6744 ) then I rolled the 12" dob out and had a look at two comets (Lovejoy and McNaught) and some nebulae (M16,17,8,20 NGC3199,3372,3581 IC2944). Finished up looking at Jupiter with one moon touching it, one in front of it and one next to it. Looked at some open clusters and planetary nebulae too (NGC 5189,4361,3242,6302,6153) Very enjoyable night.
