- Condition: VG6
- Location: Home, Spearfish: 44.49, -103.87
- Target: M 75
- Const: Sagittarius
- RaDec: 20h6m -21°55
- Type: Globular Cluster
- Scope: ST80
- Setting: 36x, AV
Found above ω Sagittarii. Detection looks small, faint. AV helps bring out the size a little, but I'm not getting much definition.
- Target: M 73, Group of 4 stars
- Const: Aquarius
- RaDec: 20h59m -12°38
- Type: Group/Asterism
- Scope: ST80
- Setting: 57x, AV
Not sure exactly what I'm looking at. A tiny clump of individual stars. When observing directly it becomes distorted. When using AV, I can see 4 or 5 individual stars close together in a triangular shape. It could almost be mistaken for a cluster.
- Target: M 15
- Const: Pegasus
- RaDec: 21h30m +12°1
- Type: Globular Cluster
- Scope: ST80
- Setting: 29x
Detection was easy. Found from ε Pegasi. Speck of a bright center that tapers off uniformly to the edges. Almost perfectly round.
- Target: M 2
- Const: Aquarius
- RaDec: 21h33m -0°49
- Type: Globular Cluster
- Scope: ST80
- Setting: 40x
Found above β Aquarii. Detection was easy, popped in the finder-scope. Quite bright. AV is not doing much for the size or shape, but does add definition to the central glow.
- Target: M 30
- Const: Capricornus
- RaDec: 21h40m -23°11
- Type: Globular Cluster
- Scope: ST80
- Setting: 40x
Found below ε and κ Capricorni. Smaller in size, but decently bright. AV does not seem to help much.
