Hi everyone
,
ok i didn't get to finish the march ob challenge but its april now and i thought we could get a good list up and running so post your object nomination and i'll try and vary the objects,i think maybe 6 a month is fine.
Here are my nominations,
Leo triplet-i think this would be a great object as its visible in small scopes(i even saw it during half moonlight)and has great detail for bigger scopes.
Castor double star- this is a lovely double star
The eight burst nebula (ngc 3132)-I have yet to see it as my scope is 130mm and it is proving a challenge for me and i think it will prove a challenge to others with small scopes.
Ngc 5128-The hamburger galaxy is always a great sight.
The virgo supercluster-how many galaxies can you see?
M44 open cluster (praesepe cluster)-is a large cluster than spans the whole fov in a low power ep.
happy observing,
Orestis
