Messier 110 from 33yrs ago - Time Flies!

#1

Post by 515bonner »


Here are my observation reports of the Messier 110 from around 1988. Used a Coulter 10.1" 1st generation model bought in 1981. Mainly had 25mmK and 16mm ortho that I used. Alll viewed with low mag. Been pondering redoing them just for fun with my 14.5" Starmaster with a 27mm Panoptic. That should be a blast!
PDF format. Enjoy

OK... I downloaded them and archived them. Now, another copy of your fine and worthy work will be available for future generations.
I love handwritten logs.

Best Regards,

A nice bit of nostalgia there Rob.

It would be interesting to compare your results if you do decide to do it again.

Congratulations on the Awards badges :smile:
