Stu I did the Herschel 400 with a 10" SCT in 2000. You should have no trouble see the objects on a good night with a 10" DOB.

Also in the October issue of Astronomy Magazine there is an article titled " Observe Autumn's Best Nebulae". Again will I be able see these nebulae through a 10" DOB. I know they wouldn't appear like those that appear (color, size) as in the magazine. Respectfully and clear skies Stu Hoppper ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour -- See message header for info on list archives or unsubscribing, and please send personal replies to the author, not the list. -- No virus found in this incoming message.
