Things are getting rather hectic at this time so, before I forget, here's the observing list for this month. If you get a chance to go out and observe be it this weekend or next, take this with you and submit your observations for the newsletter. Call for Observations Now for the following month we have a new comer – Serpens also called Serpens Cauda, which I sometimes call Serpens to the east as in east of Ophiuchus. After that brief introduction we will look for numerous stellar collections and will start with Ru 135 located at 17 58.0 -11 39. It doesn’t have a magnitude but is listed as 11’ with 20 stars of similar brightness. Second is NGC6535 a class XI globular cluster and its 9.3 mag and 1.3’ should be easy to spot. Swinging much farther south is 6th mag NGC6605 with stars from 10th to 12th mag. Did you find it? Now we move on to the choice of choices objects for this month – M16! Need more be said about this? Yes, describe the stars and nebulosity in your field of view and try some filters to see the results. Now we will try a dark nebula - LDN 564. While dark nebula don’t have magnitudes its size is listed as 45’X15’. Have a look and see what you think. Coming down to the final two is IC4756 an open cluster. It has about 80 stars from mag 8.7 on down in 39’. Our final one, another open cluster, comes from our good friend in Flagstaff - Archinal 1, located at 18 54.7 +05 33. It is about 4° west of IC4756, is 1.5’ and has 24 stars from mag 13.4. It won’t be very easy to spot. Can’t you just see Brent grinning from ear to ear? We did Pegasus in late 2005 so it is time for another pass at the Winged Flying Horse. This constellation is composed of mostly galaxies and a number of nice objects still on SAC observing lists. Have already done M15 and Stephan’s Quintet so let’s look at what’s left. We’ll start with on of the last entries in the NGC and that is NGC7839 listed as a double star. The question, not answered in the NGC, is magnitudes, separations and position angles. The hope here is that more than just Richard Harshaw will give us an answer. The description is very faint, resolved. The next entry is the first entry in the NGC, NGC 1. It is a small galaxy with a little elongation and is between an 11th mag and 14th mag star. Moving on, to the western part of the constellation is NGC7084 an open cluster of about 20’ that doesn’t have a very clear description so please supply one. Next is an asterism named Stephan’s Test, is located at RA 22 37.0 dec 34 08 and reported as a jagged line. How many stars do you count and what is the magnitude range? It is 17” northeast of Stephan's Quintet and was used by Stephan to test transparency. The last two entries are galaxies, the first being NGC7331 is barred, bright, large and elongated. What other detail is there for you? What about the middle, mottling and dark lanes? This galaxy is on the 110 Best NGC and Herschel 400 lists so there is something there for you. Last is NGC7479 another barred spiral that shouldn’t be as large or as bright as the prior galaxy. Yet can you see the central bar? This one is also on the Herschel 400 list. AJ Crayon Phoenix, AZ
