evening of 09/06/2007,
A bad start giugno.Meteo always uncertain and low pressure: a week of bad weather is too much, let alone two.
Coming to the facts, get in on the 9th morning. Sky covered with dark clouds all day, but as if by magic around 22 is clear. No more clouds now, unfortunately, remains a slight haze. That's fine, however, given the weather in the morning / afternoon.
To avoid the light of distant street lamp usually prepare a pair of red goggles "crafts, coloring with a red marker lenses of an old pair of sunglasses. The result is what it is, it'll never use them during the night view of the inconvenience.
decide to bring in the most imbriccato dob of my football field, where light does not reach directly. I care to cover with a black garbage bag one another streetlight sfuggitomi an initial inspection (by day is surprisingly difficult to establish where are all the light sources that could disturb the night observation).
take the tube 10 "in arm, down the stairs of the terrace, the garden going through other steps, it covers the thirty-odd meters of the pitch and go back to take the base. Error, the traffic at all. I did good deal: the new location I have available the western horizon, surrounded by fog, and more disturbing as the lamp on the roof plus the hose and soaks it in more ... I decided to sbaraccare all, after ten objects and chills. We need a minimum of habit, being at the edge of the woods.
Let's make the reverse journey, but did not end because instead of getting on terrace, garden fallow me in imimmergo creandomi a niche and a corridor where to place the telescope. Jupiter is rising above the trees and that is the only place where we can observe, what luck.
From the terrace the humidity is a distant memory and everything dries. Will observe up to 2.30, in slippers. How convenient point objects with the Intellsicope sitting comfortably!
Jupiter low horizon. Grossly insufficient transparency, seeing 4 / 5. A 93x, nell'Hyperion 13mm, the image is still and enjoyable addition to the band stands out a stain. In the B / TMB 5 mm the planet is not affected in any way (I could also use 400x) the goodness of seeing is disconcerting, too bad for transparency. A 250x
are clear, but low contrast bands that cross the surface, clear the different color ranges from white to rossiccio.Su a banner stand in row 4 perturbations.
Veil: First, NGC 6960, the portion that crosses the 52 Cygni, without the use of filters to 48x. Unmistakable in direct sight of the slim, elongated nebula, which describes a curve very sweet. During the evening I went back after three volte.In NGC 6992/95, at the same magnification, unless a clear and defined in the previous one, much wider and wider. A very rich star field in which it extends.
Crescent: hence the absence an OIII makes the difference between seeing or not the emission nebula. I see only a small part of the sickle lattigginosa, based on the photograph of the book of Albano, but I can not claim to have observed fully and safely. The area identified is clear, however, and appears inconfondible asterism romboide.Viste the poor condition of transparency is an inevitable outcome less than satisfactory.
North America: questionable in the 9x50 finder, you can see a portion of the sky darker by about 3 ° Deneb.Incerta.
NGC 7008: 98 "X75" / 11.2 magnituidine surface. A 48x
is easy, irregular, oval-shaped, in a crowded field in the middle of the Milky Way.
Shield: M11 and M26 as well as add the open clusters NGC 6664 and 6704, a little exciting because it objects to the telescope binoculars. Easy Ngc6712 the globular and global IC 1295.
Ofiuoco: the constellation is partially obscured by trees. I watch a lot of globular Messier and NGC losing that to lower declinations as M107. Beautiful solved the halo of M14 at 250x.
Pegasus: An impressive M15 at 250x, with the halo completely resolved and the very compact and bright nucleus. Ngc7331, gx, easy, I have not tried it next to see the three galassiette mv> 13 reported in the book. It is evening of galaxies, M81 and M82 beyond recognition. Madness was trying Quintet Stephan ...
M57: Only high magnifications. It sets out more precisely the form of 'object that appears elongated-oval, stingy with details, clear the haze light gray interior, 250x.
M27: a 93x seems a picture is very clear and very elongated lobes evident, the star field is very rich. 250x, occupies almost the whole range of B / TMB. I strain to hear the bells inside. Two of them emerge at times with great frequency, are certain. I seem to glimpse some others, but I can say I have seen 2 with certainty.
Snake: M16, open storage operations showed a trace of nebulosity in correspondence of the central star brightest (in Sagittarius and then look with profit to the nearby M17 "Omega"), Inescapable M5. The book makes me know Albano IC 4756: it is a beautiful perm
In conclusion: Finally after about a annno beginning to appreciate the high magnification even in deep, so I'll finish if I continue to consume the B / TMB utilizzato.Consiglio a little first all observers of open clusters and non IC 4756, a true revelation!
