Stephen Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Had a very good night viewing M51 was very clear all so Jupiter was the best I have seen it for ages, The blue snowball was living up to its name, I found that my 51Nig gave me some of the best viewing specially on the likes of M82 M81 double clusters were very bright giving me good colour BAZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Sounds like a great night Stephen. I was out earlier on, then the clouds came over about 21.00 so came in. What's a 51Nig Stephen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithysteve Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Glad you got out and enjoyed the brief window Stephen! ? Its been a poor few months... It did make a nice change to see some stars etc last night! ? I watched the ISS go over at 17.30 and 19.05pm, I let a few friends and family know about the 19.05pm one and they enjoyed watching it too. The moon looked fab just after sunset, then I went to my local observatory to attend a lecture and also went out with the bins until cloud rolled in. Most enjoyable, a promise of clear skies I hope!
