Mystery Galaxies
I am hoping that someone may be able to assist please.
I was out the other night seeking galaxies NGC1316, 1365, 1399 and 1404 in the Fornax / Eridanus region of the sky.
At one stage I came across what appeared to be between 5 - 7 galaxies almost in the same FOV (which I estimate to be approx. 0.44 deg based on the eyepieces I was using).
I was somewhat surprised to see so many so close together.
Given that I have no GoTo or similar software, I am not exactly certain which galaxies I may have seen.
Can anyone assist please by telling me which galaxies I may have sighted?
I have a 12" Dob and was at 156x mag at the time in a modestly light polluted sky.
