• Condition: G6
• Location: Home, Spearfish: 44.49, -103.87

09:28PM

• Target: NGC 3184, MCG 7-21-37
• Const: Ursa Major
• RaDec: 10h18m +41.25
• Scope: AT102ED
• Setting: 55x, AV

Image

Quite faint. Had to take time to let my eyes adjust to the dark. A circular noise is detectable with AV. Hard to get any details though.

09:41PM

• Target: NGC 3432, Arp 206
• Const: Leo Minor
• RaDec: 10h52m +36.37
• Scope: AT102ED
• Setting: 55x, AV

Image

Also faint. Had to sit patiently again to let my eyes adjust before an elongated elipse started to form. Seems pretty edge on. Can detect a few bright specks running down the center of the shape with AV.

09:50PM

• Target: NGC 3384, MCG 2-28-12
• Const: Leo
• RaDec: 10h48m +12.37
• Scope: AT102ED
• Setting: 55x

Image

Easy find. Sitting very close to M 105. Seems to be more elongated than M 105, but similar in brightness.

10:11PM

• Target: NGC 4038, The Antennae with 4039
• Const: Corvus
• RaDec: 12h01m -18.52
• Scope: AT102ED
• Setting: 55x, AV

Image

The shape is quite irregular. I can't tell where one ends and the other begins. Not much of a gradient. The NE side of the shape appears to be a little brighter and easier to see with AV.
