"First Light TSA120 - Moon and NGC 4755"

Today's featured report by Scribbly (Phil) is both a description of two amazing views of familiar objects - the moon and the jewel box cluster and also a first light report with his new TAK TSA120 refractor.

Aiming at the moon no color fringes were noted on the limb and features were seen in spectacular detail such as Schroter's Valley. In the case of NGC 4755 the contrasting colors of the stars, including a deep red carbon star at the center, were delightfully evident. All in all a great report and accounting of the first light experience. Congratulations Phil on winning the VROD for the day!
