[AZ-Observing] Re: 2004 All Arizona Messier Marathon

It's an interesting idea, Jeff, but I'm not sure a webcam will be sensitive
enough to capture the fainter Messier objects. Even fairly bright ones are
a concern. I'd imagine the brighter open or globular clusters would be
doable, but the Virgo Cluster could be a bear, and I'd bet M77 would give
you trouble.. Good luck anyway!
BTW, I thought the great success story was the 2000 marathon. Previous to
that, only a handful of folks had seen all 110 in a night while 25 saw them
all that night. Rosie and I being 2!
