Doc Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) This year at Kelling we had two clear night and as usual Darren and I tried to find as many objects as we could in the time we had. Below is a list of all those objects, they are not in any particular order. The skies were good especially Friday night and both scopes were spot on in finding all these objects. Mars Saturn M31 M32 M110 Ngc7662 Ngc7331 Ngc7789 M52 Double Cluster M103 Owl Cluster M34 M81 M82 M101 M51 Ngc6543 Cats Eye Nebula M13 M92 M57 The Coathanger M56 M76 M71 Ngc6826 Blinking Nebula Eastern Veil Nebula Western Veil Nebula Alberio M11 M15 M2 Ngc7009 Saturn Nebula M72 M73 M30 Uranus Neptune M45 M1 M35 M36 M37 M10 M14 M12 M107 M18 M26 I think that is about it unless Darren can add any.

Daz Type-R Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 That's about it Mick, we also managed Mars and Saturn taking our planet count to 4 but all the NGC's and Messer's look spot on, I don't have any others to add. I`m just chuffed we managed M107, a first I think Mick for both of us, this now takes my Messier "need" list down to 24, a southern trip could be in order to get the rest. Another first for me was Caroline's Rose, NGC7789, looked fantastic in my 21mm Ethos and was an object I kept going back too. Scope, EP's and filters all performed well and Kelling was a good test of the equipment (which has been stood idle for many a month) so I now feel ready for the winter months.

Doc Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 It turned out that I had M107 Daz, only new one for me was M30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Sounds like you had a wonderful time. Carolines Rose is lovely from a dark sky, glad you found that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
