Well, it was a nice clear night up here last night... quite cool as well. So I decided to do a little stargazing. Went searching for the Crab Nebula (M1).
I was pretty sure that I was in the right area; followed the line of the bull's horn from Aldebaran to the next brightest star...
The only thing that I could find near that star was a very, very faint (roughly) circular fuzzy patch which looked more like a faint globular cluster than the Crab Nebula...
So, do you think this was it or had I drifted off track?
Any suggestions would be appreciated!!
