Bins are perfect from a dark site, I bet you will see just as many, maybe more then people with a scope.

Bins have at least a 5 degree FOV which makes them perfect for picking out little smudges.

Only difficult thing would be someone double checking if you are correct, but give it a go anyway.

Martyn is going to help me judge and he has his yellow marker pen at the ready :lol:

We are going to print of 30 copies of each one, hopefully that will be enough.

As soon as you hit upon a Messier object just give myself or Martyn a call and we will look through your scope to confirm it's the correct object and then sign our initials next to the object on your form.

Also any chance you could provide a key for us newbies who don't know constellation name abbreviations
