Funny I am doing an assignment, just started on 3C273 calculation of luminosity and distances for my Uni course  |
The QUASAR 3C273 Is quite easily seen as a a star in a 10"scope from a dark site as a STAR LIKE OBJECT.
It was observed from Cambroon in a 10" scope by Wes (Zubenel) about a year ago and I confirmed it
