NOTE FROM THE PICACHO (Cádiz) on 9 July 2010 Comment from Picacho







This year we have had few occasions to go out to observe due to bad weather, but come summer, we tried to make all possible outputs and this time threw for the peak with my Meade LB 300.



Before nightfall, we aim to M4 and the cluster that is at hand, NGC 6144, it is still early and there is not enough darkness to highlight those clusters. He also pointed to the eye hyperion M57 5 mm (x300), the image is spectacular, as usual, but I put the OIII filter and I really do not like so much. If I use the UHC filter with 5 mm, much improved image, very well defined center, with interior and looks great ring area, so it is clear that for this nebula, it is best to use this filter.


hyperion
After I put the 17 mm (x90) and see the galaxy NGC5746, 5740 and 5738, observing the area, I see that there are still many more things, the galaxy NGC 5746 is a finite Very nice side of a star, the other two are round, stands in the nucleus and in lateral view I see the haze of the galaxy. Moving the telescope in the area, I see that there are many more things, so I enjoy looking at that part of the sky.

Step

see M5, spectacular as ever, as it works out well with the eye of 17 mm. I follow the step to see galaxies and NGC 5709 with eyepiece of 17 mm, it is a very thin elongated galaxy, and very nice to see, is a large galaxy. Also observed with the 17 mm Nagler my companion, and the truth that is very justified the price difference to the contrast much better and look better, despite being the same telescope and the same increases.



We see the globular cluster NGC 6355 with the 17 mm Nagler is a small object, this object is also well observed differences between the Hyperion 17 mm, I think I need and a Nagler :)



We turn now to see the planetary nebula NGC 6369 with the hyperion of 17 mm, an object is very small and mistaken for a star, although in lateral view, shows that it is a planetary nebula. If we put the 9 mm eyepiece (x170), and if you see clearly that it is a planetary nebula.



I continue with the 35 mm eyepiece (x44) and OIII, observed the North America Nebula (NGC 7000), tonight is highlighted very well, both the Gulf of Mexico as the rest of it. At other times I could only clearly distinguish the Gulf, but in this case we see the rest. Also se puede observar el pelícano que está al lado, me lo confirma mi compañero de Observación. Aprovecho para ver el velo con el 35 y el OIII, aprovecho que está en el cenit para observar gran cantidad de detalles. También observo la nebulosa de Norteamérica con un ocular de 40 mm y un filtro NPB, también se contrasta muy bien la nebulosa.



También he pasado por el cúmulo de E.T., es un objeto que siempre causa sensación cuando se enseña a los demás. Esa noche acabamos pronto porque era viernes y pretendíamos salir el sábado.
