Mike, forgetting what you said above

I issue you a challenge

It's the 25th Anniversary of sn1987a- it would be fabulous to see a pic from you of the remnant.
And post it where it belongs- on the current running anniversary thread.
This guy did it here, even showing the light echo ring! I'd love to see the damage you could do!
Nice idea Suz but at 1180mm FL my scope isn't really designed for such tiny things, this would e a better target for the larger RC's out there that can be barlowed and preferably ones at good steady sky sites.

Marcus Davies located the SNR last year in his wide field shot taken with his Tak 6" APO (1100mm FL)
