Observation Report For 11/17/2006
Posted: Sat Nov 18, 2006 12:56 am
Another clear and pleasant night worth of starwatching. It was a bit warmer than last night. Anyways, let's see what I saw through the 8 inch telescope.
Pleiades (M45)
Hyades
Andromeda Galaxy (M31)
M32
Double Cluster
NGC 129
NGC 457-Reminds me of Gumby.
Tr1
M103
NGC 752
M=Messier
NGC=New General Catalog
Tr=Trumpler
Saw a meteor streak by in the northwestern part of the sky. It was yellowish-white and rather bright, I'd say around magnitude -1 to +1. Overall, not a bad night. I would like to see the Leonids.
A great night of observng.
