Stargazing Night Observations

Observation time: 2 hours (counts as 4)

We observed a small image of Saturn through a high power telescope

We observed the Summer Triangle in the sky and Alberio in the Cygnus constellation through the telescope.

M22, the brightest globular cluster in the night sky, was observed through binoculars and the telescope.

We used Mr. Percival's technique of starhopping to observe where Cassiopeia is in the sky in relation to many other constellations.

M11 in Scutum and M13 in Hercules were both observed by the use of binoculars.
