What the hell did I see???
Last night I was out for a bit, damn clouds here in Melbourne have just ruined nights for the past 2 months. Some areas of the sky was cloudy but was about to see a few things before there was total cloud cover (only out there for about 10mins).
Using the HC I didn't bother aligning the scope because I knew I would only be out there not that long so in alignment mode I was just moving it around freely to see what I can find.
As I was moving it I came across this weird object. It looked like a whitish dark dot surrounded by a cloudy type effect. It can't be a cloud because there was none in that region of the sky and it stayed static for a few mins (clouds were moving quick last night).
I am having a look in Redshift 7 on my PC now and trying to get my bearings from Neptune. I found an object, Small Magellanic Cloud and it looks like that, could it be this?
Would anyone have an idea of what it was?
