Nice work Anthony. Nice to see someone jumping in and using the template. Soon we will be providing some targets for next month (not compuslary of course) that is hoped to extend people's observing skills through recording details of targeted objects and comparisons with others.
To answer your question (and I am going from your diagram) - the "E" component is the one "above" the 4 main stars (above and inbetween "B" and "A". The "F" component is the lower extra star and is tucked in close to the "C" component.
WOW so now i have to concentrate on G and H huh ???? but looking at the mag of them i think you'd prob. need a 20" to see them ...... and theres one coming on the 7th woo hoo
you mean "when she's made straight"?
...couldn't resist!
Congrats on seeing the extra trapezium stars! Orion's disappeared behind my roof so I'll have to wait till next summer!
Good to see you're putting the 'grenade' to use too!!!
Truff are you coming on the 7th ? If so ill give you the rest of what i owe you if not could you PM or emaiul me with your account details and ill direct deposit it ..
Yeah straighten my baby !!
The grenade how does one clean the lense ??? or should i take it to a camera shop and get them to clean it ?
Just noticed you quoted your FOV as 50deg on your observing log. That's the "Apparent Field of View". What you want is the "Actual Field of View" which is the Apparent Field of View divided by the Magnification. So with your 12.5mm ep giving a mag of 120X, the "Actual Field of View" is 0.42deg or 25 arcmins (60 arcminutes per degree)
You always see the abbreviation AFOV but I can never figure out if the A means 'Actual' or 'Apparent' !!! But it keeps me on my toes and makes me feel like singing.
