Milky Way Tour Last Night
|
A wonderful evening last night albeit somewhat noisy with all the fireworks going off in the distant. Did a tour through the milky way with my 5 inch triplet. Started at the Veil in Cygnus and then onto Alberio (lovely), the Dumbell Nebula, M71 in Sagitta, Brocchi's Cluster, Wild Duck Cluster in Aquila, M22 in Sagittarius and then across and up through the Lagoon, Trifid, M24, Omega, and Eagle Nebula ... Cheers Ian

Ian, we saw a lot of those same objects Saturday night at Skywatch at Northwest River Park, in various telescopes. George George Reynolds "Solar System Ambassador" for South Hampton Roads, Virginia Back Bay Amateur Astronomers (BBAA) http://www.backbayastro.org
