Description

Messier 105 (NGC 3379) is the brightest elliptical galaxy in the Leo I or M 96 group of galaxies. Taken with my new Unistellar eVscope 2 at the OKCAC’s Cheddar Ranch Observatory the night of 30 April - 1 May 2022. This was the third night out with my eVScope 2. EV mode, auto settings, no post processing. I’m estimating Bortle 5 skies. Weather was clear, light to no wind, temperatures started at about 72F and dropped to about 65F by 0230.
