and another one bites the dust!
8" reflector w/ 15mm SV ep. seeing 6/10.
this was my second MOC aboject for the night... first the bug, then the starfish.
I consulted my charts as i had no idea where pavo was and noticed there was a (approx) mag 8 galaxy near by to check out later
follwed my guide stars to the glob and bam! quite bright in my EP really
nice bright central core with a whole bunch of scattered stars around it. I didnt really use my imagination on this too much so i couldnt see a starfish. still, its gotta be one of the prettier globs in the sky
whizzed around the area of the galaxy for ages and found zip... disappointed, but then i had no luck with galaxies all night
