just bagged M13, M4, and M5 last night on the 6" refractor.

A bright star with a faint binary companion in Serpens Caput is in the same field of view as M5 using a 25mm f.l. lens.

Note to everyone puzzled by the above: it's just a secret code RA and the rest of us use. If you don't believe me, just wait for the usual trolling suspects to arrive and accuse us of sending secret messages.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread....

I saw a full moon a few nights ago. Do I get any credit for that?

Stellar objects, I presume? Do you store them in your freezer?
