Description

This is an image from the same night I took my last two. That is the beauty of this scope - if I stay up late enough I can get multiple objects! I have put various sizes here for people to look at. I was hoping it was going to be clear last night, as per the many forecasts - but no, high hazy cloud! Here is hoping for tonight. Anyway, I hope you like these two iconic galaxies; I was pleased to be able to bring forth the faint extension, off the bottom of the hockey stick galaxy. Thanks. Simon
