Saw both NGC 360 & NGC 646 this am with the 12" Dob, but no shape in 646. It's cold today, minus 0.2 @ 5am in Casino.
Also used a low power eyepiece (50 times with a 92' field) to see: Messier's 31, 32, 110, 33, 77, 2, 45, 30 and
NGC's 104, 362, 55, 300, 7793, 247,253, 288, 1291, 1313, 1316, 1317, 1360, 1398, 1350, 1365, 1380, 1399, 1404 etc (9 galaxies in one field), 1532, 1549, 1553, 1566, 1792, 1808, 1851, 7552, 7582, 7590, 7599 (4 galaxies in field), 7293.
After that I scanned the SMC & LMC at low power: N330, 346, 371, 1763, 1850, 2070 etc
Earlier in the night I used the 20x80s to look at the North American Nebula and other things. Very clear and COLD, -0.4 @6am.
