This galaxy is somewhat lower in the sky than the others that I observed on this evening, so it was more difficult. I nevertheless felt it was not that difficult to pick up; I could use direct vision. It was kind of a long star hop to the location where it is, but even with that, I placed the telescope on the spot where I thought the finder indicated the galaxy should be, and was right on. I could not see any of the detail like in this picture by Adam Block lol. |
