[AZ-Observing] Re: Herschel 400 Awards in Arizona

I took about two years to complete the H400, with some
intensive weekend trips and some observing sessions
with no H400.  Trying to "do" the H400 like the Messier
Marathon (find, check, find, check, ... ) would take a
lot of the value out of the project.  Plus, to complete the
certificate requirements, requires a description of the
object, which requires actually "looking" at the object.
I would say 10 - 15 minutes, minimum, for a real observation
of an object.
