| N_659 | N | 1h 44m 12s | 60° 42m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 10 16 4:28:24 | Looks to me like a chance grouping of ~8 10-12mv stars. There might be a haze of much fainter ones, but that might be averted imaganation, too. Wikisky: There is a very slight clumping of Milky Way stars here |
| STF 155 | D | 1h 44m 15.19s | 9° 29m 2s | C-8 | B | 2007-11-27 20:00:00 | A pretty pair, forming the base of an isosceles triangle triangle of stars. A nice asterism! |

| STF 186 | D | 1h 55m 53.8s | 1° 50m 59s | C-8 | B | 2007-09-18 03:00:00 | A close pair, with the secondary looking much fainter than its listed magnitude. The secondary sat on the primaries first or second diffraction ring, the seeing was fairly unsteady, so the rings were dancing around wildly; position angle approximately 270°. WDS: position angle: 60, Sep: 1.4, Mv: 6.79, Mvb: 6.84, Sp: F9V. It's possible that this was the wrong star. |

| S 476 | D | 5h 19m 17.43s | -18° 31' 11" | C-8 | B | 2008-02-16 20:15:00 | A nice, wide pair in 205° position angle. WDS position angle: 19° (2008). Seems that we disagree as to which is primary and which is secondary. The stars are 6.3 and 6.5 mv, again, as given by the WDS. |
| STF 688 | D | 5h 19m 20.87s | -10° 44' 49" | C-8 | B | 2008-02-27 20:00:00 | Lovely pair. Pale yellow, with very faint blue and red overtones. position angle approximately 275 or 95. WDS: 94. |
| N_1857 | N | 5h 20m 12s | 39° 21m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 3 8 21:38:30 | A cluster of faint stars, on the edge of visibility, with a bright yellow 7mv star in it's center. |
| STF 692 | D | 5h 20m 24.15s | -8° 1' 47" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 2 11 20:21:7 | An OK wide pair. I see 1° pa, WDS: 5° pa. (yawn) |
| BU 189 | D | 5h 20m 26.41s | -5° 22' 3" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 1 18 21:35:10 | Companion very faint, as per the WDS. |

| UV Aur | V | 5h 21m 48.84s | 32° 30m 51.25s | C-8 | B | 2007-02-10 21:00:00 | A deep red star of around 9 Mv. The companion is faint and hard to see. C-8 |
| N_1893 | N | 5h 22m 42s | 33° 24m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 12 2 20:39:17 | This looks like a chance grouping of milky way stars. Very loose, if a cluster at all. WikiSky: There is quite a bit of nebulosity here, invisible in the moonlight and light pollution. |
| STF 696 | D | 5h 22m 50s | 3° 32m 40s | C-8 | B | 2006-11-03 03:30:00 | AKA 23 Ori. Nice. The primary shows a faintly pastel green tint about it. |
| STF 700 | D | 5h 23m 5.53s | 1° 3m 24s | C-8 | B | 2007-01-10 21:00:00 | A pretty pair of white stars, with that special brilliance from the fact they are B9s. |
| STF 701 | D | 5h 23m 18.49s | -8° 24' 55" | C-8 | B | 2007-01-10 21:00:00 | A very nice pair. A: pastel blue, B: pastel red. |
| STF 697 | D | 5h 23m 31.73s | 16° 2m 25s | C-8 | B | 2008-02-27 20:00:00 | This superb pair is part of a rather stunning sight. In the 24.5, there are a line of stars: 7.5 10.1 , 10.8, 8.1, 7.7, and 8.5 mv splitting the field. The 8.1 and the 7.7 are Struve 697. One of the unsung spectacular sights in the sky. Wow! Position angle approximately 300°, WDS: 286. Strangely enough, this was missed by Burnham, although it gets a brief mention in Webb. |
| WNC 2 | D | 5h 23m 51.31s | -0° 51' 59" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 11 24 22:52:53 | A nice, close pair. I see 170° pa, WDS sees 159° pa, 2008. |
| DA 5 | D | 5h 24m 28.61s | -2° 23' 49" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2012 1 10 19:22:53 | A tight pair, enveloped in each other's diffraction patterns. As per the WDS, 2010. |
| N_1904 | N | 5h 24m 30s | -24° 33' 0" | C-8 | B | 2006-11-03 03:30:00 | Barely granulated, if at all. The stars in this cluster are 14 Mv or fainter. |
| N_1904 | N | 5h 24m 30s | -24° 33' 0" | C-8 | B | 2006-10-29 03:00:00 | The seeing this morning was horrible, the cluster was not even granulated. Pinnacles |

| STF 708 | D | 5h 25m 11.38s | 1° 55m 24s | C-8 | B | 2008-02-14 19:00:00 | I saw position angle approximately 330°, and the separation looked greater than 2". This could have been because the seeing was quite steady. WDS: 322 degrees position angle, 2001. |
| STF 698 | D | 5h 25m 12.94s | 34° 51m 18s | C-8 | B | 2007-02-10 21:00:00 | A wide double, pastel yellow and blue, beautiful! |

(Burnham gives the separation as 31.2" , WDS as 31.1. So much for guessing at the eyepiece. I tend to see things closer than they are). |

| STF 712 | D | 5h 26m 31.21s | 2° 56m 9s | C-8 | B | 2008-01-30 19:00:00 | A nice, little, unequal double, position angle approximately 60°. WDS:66°. Phi Orionis, a 4.6 mv B2 star is in the same field. Quite nice. |
| KNT 3 | D | 5h 26m 50.23s | 3° 5m 44s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 12 24 21:36:18 | I see a brightening in the diffraction pattern at 30°, pa. The WDS sees 331, 1991. A very difficult, if resolved at all, pair. |
| S Aur | V | 5h 27m 7.42s | 34° 9m 7.57s | C-8 | B | 2006-09-30 03:30:00 | A yellow star? Perhaps this star was not seen? C-8 |
| I_418 | N | 5h 27m 30s | -12° 42' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 11 13 4:5:59 | A small (10"), bright, round 9mv planetary. It was best in the 6mm, and the central star was glimpsed. |
| N_1907 | N | 5h 28m 0s | 35° 19m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 12 15 20:53:5 | A small scatter of ~ 20 9...mv stars, a degree south of M 38. |

| STF 721 | D | 5h 29m 33.51s | 3° 8m 52s | C-8 | B | 2009-02-23 20:00:00 | An OK, wide pair. The B5 star is not a brilliant blue. |
| STF 719 | D | 5h 30m 6.13s | 29° 32m 55s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 2 2 18:28:51 | An OK pair, as per the WDS. |
| STF 728 | D | 5h 30m 47.05s | 5° 56m 53s | C-8 | B | 2008-01-30 19:00:00 | The secondary of this bright pair was almost lost in a jumble of diffraction spots caused by tonight's clear, but somewhat unsteady air. The star was not elongated by the 24.5, it took the 4 to show this. PA approximately 45°. WDS: 45° pa. |
| DV Tau | V | 5h 31m 6.3s | 18° 33m 44.72s | C-8 | B | 2006-09-20 03:30:00 | A yellow orange M6 star. The brighter CE Tau is in the same field. |

| STF 734 | D | 5h 33m 7.34s | -1° 43' 2" | C-8 | B | 2008-02-27 20:00:00 | A dull double, compared to the rest of the night's viewing. Position angle 245, WDS: 248. |
| RT Ori | V | 5h 33m 14.01s | 7° 9m 20.5s | C-8 | B | 2008-01-25 21:30:00 | A dusky red star whose color is hard to see because of its 9.5 mv faintness. |
| N_1964 | N | 5h 33m 24s | -21° 57' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 11 12 3:35:14 | A faint, small, round patch gbm. B: Sb, 11.8mv. WkikSky: looks like an SBb to me. |
| N_1952 | N | 5h 34m 30s | 22° 1m 0s | C-8 | B | 2006-10-29 03:00:00 | The celebrated crab nebula is but a dim smudge from my backyard. |
| N_1952 | N | 5h 34m 30s | 22° 1m 0s | C-11 | P | 2008-11-28 21:00:00 | The delicate filagree strands of expanding gas were seen for the first time with the larger aperture. |

| SE 4 | D | 5h 34m 43.19s | -4° 23' 31" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 3 9 21:13:33 | Field found, star not found. Not seen. |
| STF 745 | D | 5h 34m 49.11s | -6° 0' 22" | C-8 | B | 2008-03-12 21:00:00 | A dull, wide pair, easily overlooked because of its proximity to iota orionis and the great nebula to the north. |
| STF 747 | D | 5h 35m 2.68s | -6° 0' 7" | C-8 | B | 2006-11-03 03:30:00 | A wide double, southwest of Iota Ori. |

| DA 4 | D | 5h 35m 23.16s | -4° 50' 18" | C-8 | B | 2008-02-16 20:15:00 | A very difficult star to split. WDS gives the separation as 2", it seems much closer as the bright primary swamps the secondary. I saw approximately 270° position angle, WDS gives 205°. Wikisky shows about 260°. |
| N_1976 | N | 5h 35m 24s | -5° 27' 0" | C-8 | P | 2007-03-18 10:30:00 | The great nebula in Orion. It looked GREEN at 36x. This is the first time I've ever seen this color in it, probably due to the low magnification and large exit pupil. The seeing was poor, and I could barely make out the E and F stars in the trapesium at 160x. |
| N_1976 | N | 5h 35m 24s | -5° 27' 0" | C-11 | Fall Star Party | 2010-11-05 4:40 | In tonight's dew drenched sky, the great nebula looked blacklight poster blue green. The 28° latitude and high altitude of the nebula were probably contributing factors to its apparent brightness. |

Due the the brightness of the primary, the 5.5 Mv secondary is hard to see, even at a separation of 2.3 arc seconds. The seeing this morning was very poor. It might be easier on a better night. |
| STF 774 | D | 5h 40m 45.52s | -1° 56' 33" | C-8 | B | 2006-09-30 03:30:00 | Even with fairly decent seeing (Pickering 7), the pair is difficult. The secondary sits in the third or forth diffraction ring of the primary. |

| STF 900 | D | 6h 23m 46.09s | 4° 35m 34s | C-8 | B | 2006-12-13 03:00:00 | AKA 8 Mon. A nice, wide pair of yellow stars. The double star catalog lists them as an A5 and F5, so perhaps there's a bit of interstellar reddening here. |
| V Aur | V | 6h 24m 2.96s | 47° 42m 31.49s | C-8 | B | 2007-10-21 03:00:00 | A brick red star, with a bit of pastel gray mixed in. A classic N star which I found to be 9.5 mv. |

| STF 926 | D | 6h 31m 40.53s | 5° 46m 8s | C-8 | B | 2006-12-13 03:00:00 | An unimpressive double. |

Just to the east, however, is a superb star chain ending in a equilateral triangle of 8.5mv stars about 15" apart. WikiSky: cluster not found here, either, the star chain and it's trio (which are 30" apart), were found. They are not mentioned in Burnham. Various internet references identify the star chain as the cluster. |

Initially they looked like the K stars they are, but after staring at them for a while, they looked more like F stars. Stellar color is a very subjective thing, sans photoelectric devices. |

Interesting star field with another brighter and much wider pair just north, not in the WDS. Wikisky: the star identified in the WDS as STF 995 does not appear to be double. The pair I found is 9.7 - 10.4, 24" apart, in 300° pa. The WDS does not identify it, or more probably has it's RA slightly off. My pair is 6h 57m 12.9s, not 6h 56m 20.45s. The decs are virtually the same. Not seen. |

Whether this effect was due to actual stellar formations as chains or an illusion of my visual processing is unknown. The cluster is in a very rich region of the milky way. A splendid wide field view. |

| N_2367 | N | 7h 20m 6s | -21° 56' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 11 13 5:1:25 | A tiny "V" asterism of ~ 4 10mv stars. The top east star is a pair of 10mv stars, in 290° pa, 2.5" sep. |

| N_2383 | N | 7h 24m 48s | -20° 56' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 3 8 20:3:38 | Only 3 of the brightest stars in this cluster are visible, it needs a darker sky. It is in a rich field, though. WikiSky: A group of around 20 stars, 11mv... form a cloud around the bright trio that was seen through the light pollution. |
| N_2384 | N | 7h 25m 6s | -21° 2' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 3 8 20:5:29 | Part of a pair with 2383, another cluster where only 4 or so of it's brightest stars are visible. WikiSky: A wide pair of 9mv stars have a few 10.5mv stars around them. |

The field was found, but only the central star and hints of a few fainter ones close by were seen. Confirmed by WikiSky. Very few stars in this one, hardly a cluster. |

| N_2392 | N | 7h 29m 12s | 20° 55m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2012 1 6 1:28:57 | A very hazy star in tonight's moon washed sky. Brighter towards the center, I could see no ring. |

| H N 19 | D | 7h 34m 18.61s | -23° 28' 25" | C-8 | B | 2008-03-01 21:00:00 | A wonderful pair of yellow stars, with faint overtones of green and red, much like 95 Her. Burnham lists this as S 552 and Hh 269. |
| STF1116 | D | 7h 34m 32.01s | 12° 18m 16s | C-8 | B | 2007-12-18 02:30:00 | A nice, close pair |

| STT 174 | D | 7h 35m 56s | 43° 1m 51s | C-8 | B | 2008-02-16 20:15:00 | I saw position angle approximately 80°. WDS position angle: 88°. The companion was almost overwhelmed from the glare of the primary. This 1.6" pair requires good seeing to split. |
| N_2421 | N | 7h 36m 18s | -20° 37' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 3 8 20:14:12 | A triangle of 11mv stars surrounded by a barely perceptable glow against the light polluted night sky. WikiSky: About 15 13...mv stars make up this glow. |
| BE CMi | V | 7h 36m 28.07s | 2° 4m 20.9s | C-8 | B | 2008-04-02 21:30:00 | A dull, orange brown star of 8.4 mv |

| N_2403 | N | 7h 36m 54s | 65° 36m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 1 10 21:46:37 | Faint but fairly large. Barely glimpsed in both the 24mm and 12.5mm. That I saw it at all is remarkable, but tonight's skies are fairly clear. This would be great in the 11" in dark skies. |
| N_2423 | N | 7h 37m 6s | -13° 52' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 11 18 4:43:58 | A coarse cluster of 8...mv stars. There are 5 pairs in it. Nice. |

| N_2419 | N | 7h 38m 6s | 38° 53m 0s | C-8 | P | 2007-01-20 22:00:00 | A faint glow in the sky, only the faintest hint of granulation. |
| N_2419 | N | 7h 38m 6s | 38° 53m 0s | C-11 | LBRP | 2011 5 5 23:25:9 | The cluster was mottled in Tom C's 18! Superb. |
| N_2419 | N | 7h 38m 6s | 38° 53m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 10 30 4:13:57 | Glimpsed! A faint smudge subtending a bit under 1/10th of the 18mm field. Harris (2010) gives the diameter as 4.6'. I saw less than half of this diameter, 1/10 of the 18mm field is 2.2'. |
| N_2420 | N | 7h 38m 30s | 21° 34m 0s | C-8 | B | 2008-03-01 21:00:00 | I could make out 4 or 5 11th-12th mv stars, emmersed in a very faint cloud of dimmer ones. |

| N_2438 | N | 7h 41m 48s | -14° 44' 0" | C-11 | LBRP | 2010 3 17 21:32:7 | A small, bright, planetary on the edge of M 46. |
| N_2440 | N | 7h 41m 54s | -18° 13' 0" | C-11 | P | 2009-04-17 22:30:00 | Like a fuzzy, our of focus star at low power (115x, 30mm) but mottled at high power (246x, 12.5), with a hint of a central star. An interesting object. Burnham reports the central star is 16th mv, so I probably didn't see it. |
| STF1132 | D | 7h 42m 12.49s | -3° 31' 10" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2012 1 28 23:2:39 | An OK pair, as per the WDS, 2003. |

| N_2467 | N | 7h 52m 36s | -26° 23' 0" | C-8 | P | 2007-03-18 10:30:00 | Looks like a large, faint planetary. Probably a stromgen sphere. In a rather starry field. Quite nice. |
| N_2482 | N | 7h 54m 54s | -24° 18' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 11 18 5:7:41 | This is more of a chance grouping of stars in the milky way than a cluster. Lackluster. WikiSky: Confirmed. |
| HDO 111 | D | 7h 55m 54s | -19° 38' 0" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 3 8 20:31:22 | Field found but star not found. Last seen in 1870, it's probably an error. WikiSky. There is an 11.5 mv - 12.5 mv pair there, 275° pa, 17" sep. WDS only lists HDO 111. |

| N_2548 | N | 8h 13m 48s | -5° 48' 0" | C-8 | B | 2008-03-01 21:00:00 | This would be stunning in a dark sky, as it is, it's a nice washed out cluster of 30 8-10 mv stars with at least that many fainter ones close by. |

| N_4387 | N | 12h 25m 42s | 12° 49m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | An edge on spiral, with a bright middle. |
| N_4385 | N | 12h 25m 42s | 0° 34m 0s | C-8 | P | 2007-05-11 23:00:00 | Very faint, NW of an 8th Magnitude star. K stars gives its magnitude as 13.2, Burnham (usually the more accurate source) gives it as 12.9. SS Virginis is about 1/2 degree North of NGC 4385. |

They were but a persistent glowing patch of sky background. HNGC lists them as 13.8 and 14 mv. I only located them because of their proximity to NGC 4459, and it's 8 mv star just south east. |
| N_4448 | N | 12h 28m 12s | 28° 37m 0s | C-11 | LBRP | 2011 6 6 22:45:19 | An elongated spiral with a bright nucleus. Nice. B: Sb. |

When you look at the star the galaxy vanishes, when you look away from it, the galaxy appears to be only a bit dimmer than the star. The "blinking" galaxy! |
| N_4461 | N | 12h 29m 0s | 13° 11m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | AKA NGC 4443. A small, bright elliptical (Burnham: S0). A pair with the fainter ngc 4458. |
| N_4458 | N | 12h 29m 0s | 13° 15m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | Makes a pair with the brighter ngc 4461. HNGC lists this as 11.8 mv, but it looks fainter than that. It also lists it as an elliptical, but it was too faint for me to guess. |
| N_3c 273 | N | 12h 29m 6s | 2° 3m 0s | C-8 | P | 2007-05-11 23:00:00 | Looks like a 12th Magnitude star. Too faint to detect the blue color. This needed the AAVSO finder chart to identify it. |
| N_4464 | N | 12h 29m 24s | 8° 10m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A faint, fuzzy starlike object. Brighter than 4467. Not in Burnham, but HRNGC lists it as a spiral. In the sloan survey photo, it looks like an S0. |
| N_4468 | N | 12h 29m 30s | 14° 3m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | An extremely faint galaxy, HNGC lists it as a 12.7 mv elliptical. |

| N_4488 | N | 12h 30m 54s | 8° 22m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | An extremely faint, 5 arc minute diameter glow. The Sloan photo shows an edge on spiral, with distended outer arms. |
| N_4492 | N | 12h 31m 0s | 8° 5m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A faint ellipse, position angle approximately 60°, with an 11.5 mv field star on top of it. |
| N_4494 | N | 12h 31m 24s | 25° 47m 0s | C-11 | LBRP | 2010 4 10 22:28:11 | An elliptical or face on Sa. Bright nucleus, with a uniformly bright disk. (E1: Burnham) |

| N_4501 | N | 12h 32m 0s | 14° 25m 0s | C-8 | P | 2007-03-20 10:30:00 | A minature M31, but a bit less tilted. Quite nice. There is a double of 11th or 12th Mv stars just south that looks like another galaxy. |
| N_4501 | N | 12h 32m 0s | 14° 25m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A bright spiral like NGC 253, with a bright middle. AKA M 88. |

| N_4506 | N | 12h 32m 12s | 13° 25m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | Another faint spiral, beyond the C-8. HNGC lists it as 12.8 mv. |
| N_4517 | N | 12h 32m 48s | 0° 7m 0s | C-11 | Pinnacles | 2011 5 29 23:53:4 | A large, faint smudge, with an 11.5mv star involved. Hard to find. B: edge on Sc. |
| N_4516 | N | 12h 33m 6s | 14° 34m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | HNGC lists this as a 12.5 mv spiral. It's too faint for the C-8. |
| N_4519 | N | 12h 33m 30s | 8° 39m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A 3 arc minute, dim, round blob. (Burnham: SBc) |
| N_4526 | N | 12h 34m 0s | 7° 42m 0s | C-8 | B | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A bright, large almost face on Sc spiral (?) with a small nucleus, between 2 7 mv stars. position angle approximately 120. (the faint outer arms, easily seen in photos, were washed out by the stars) (Burnham: E7/ S0) |
| N_4526 | N | 12h 34m 0s | 7° 42m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 3 20 2:15:27 | There is a star about 1/6 of a field (12.5mm) south of the galaxy, not shown on my finder chart. WikiSky: It's 13.35mv. |
| N_4527 | N | 12h 34m 6s | 2° 39m 0s | C-11 | LBRP | 2010 4 14 23:44:18 | A streak in the sky, brighter in the middle. (Burnham: N_4527) |
| N_4535 | N | 12h 34m 18s | 8° 12m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A large, dim, globular. The stars were resolved with averted vision. Wrong! It's a face on SBc spiral (Burnham)! The patchy arms looked starlike. |
| N_4531 | N | 12h 34m 18s | 13° 5m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A very faint smudge. HNGC lists it as "faint", 11.7 mv. In general, spirals without bright middles are hard to see. |
| N_4536 | N | 12h 34m 30s | 2° 11m 0s | C-10 | Pinnacles | 2011 5 30 0:15:43 | Nice, mottled spiral. As per the NGC. B: Sc/SBc. |
| STF1657 | D | 12h 35m 7.76s | 18° 22m 37s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-06 22:30:00 | AKA 23 Coma. A glorious double. Primary yellow, secondary blue green. Reminds me of Albireo. |
| N_4548 | N | 12h 35m 24s | 14° 30m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A large, face on Sc, with a bright middle. Burnham: an SBb. Wiki Sky lists this as M 91. |

| N_4554 | N | 12h 35m 42s | 11° 11m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A very faint glow. WikiSky shows a pair of 13th mv stars here. Probably an NGC error, and a very easy one to make. I saw but a glow, with averted vision, and no double star. Other internet sources confirm that this is indeed an NGC error. |
| N_4552 | N | 12h 35m 42s | 12° 33m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A small, bright round elliptical with a bright middle. AKA M 89. |

They are between two 6th mv stars, which are themselves about 6 arc minutes apart. The entire group is listed as Struve 1659. It was swept up while looking for M 104, NGC 4594, which was obliterated by Washington's light pollution. |
| N_4559 | N | 12h 36m 0s | 27° 58m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A large irregular blob. dim but quite mottled, with no distinct nucleus. Burnham: Sc. |
| N_4565 | N | 12h 36m 18s | 25° 59m 0s | C-8 | P | 2007-03-18 10:30:00 | 80x: A faint but distinct streak, with sharp edges. Bright middle, and the dust lane was barely visible with averted vision. |
| N_4565 | N | 12h 36m 18s | 25° 59m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | This superb edge on gives the illusion of having the edges of its spiral arms appear to be spread out, which photos prove does not happen. |
| N_4564 | N | 12h 36m 24s | 11° 26m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A small, uniformly bright spot. It looks like a faint planetary nebula. Burnham lists it as an E6, and its WikiSky photo confirms this. The nucleus does look round. Next time more power than 36x needs to be applied. |
| N_4568 | N | 12h 36m 36s | 11° 14m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A pair of galaxies, with NGC 4567 an arc minute to the north. At 36x, these looked like a single galaxy. They need to be re-examined with higher power. |
| N_4569 | N | 12h 36m 48s | 13° 10m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | An Andromeda like spiral, but much smaller! Bright middle. AKA M90. |
| N_4570 | N | 12h 36m 54s | 7° 15m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A streak with a bright middle, position angle approximately 170°. Sb spiral? (Burnham: E8/S0) |
| N_4579 | N | 12h 37m 42s | 11° 49m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | AKA M 58. A bright, face on Sb/Sa/E0/? Burnham lists it as an Sb. |
| N_4584 | N | 12h 38m 18s | 13° 7m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | Too faint for my C-8. HNGC lists it as 12.8 mv spiral, but that's spread over a couple of square arc minutes of sky. |
| STF1664 | D | 12h 38m 19.94s | -11° 31' 1" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 5 10 22:12:17 | A nice starscape of three stars in an almost perfect row, with a forth fainter on just west on the same row. A fifth brigt star is just below this line of stars. |
| R Vir | V | 12h 38m 30.1s | 6° 59m 17.1s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | An orange white star of approximately 6.5 Mv. |
| N_4590 | N | 12h 39m 30s | -26° 45' 0" | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A globular cluster, 3' in diameter. Approximately 50 stars were seen with averted vision, 5-10 with direct. This suggests that my averted vision is reaching 14.5 mv, direct 13th. |
| N_4596 | N | 12h 39m 54s | 10° 11m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A spiral with a bright middle, half a degree west of 5th magnitude Rho Vir. Burnham lists it as an S0/SBa. NGC 4608 is between Rho and NGC 4596. |
| N_4605 | N | 12h 40m 0s | 61° 37m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 4 6 21:21:38 | The very faintest of smudges against this fairly dark (for this light polluted sky) sky. Without the finder chart, I would have seen nothing. |
| N_4594 | N | 12h 40m 0s | -11° 37' 0" | C-8 | B | 2008-04-15 03:15:00 | AKA M 104. A difficult object in tonight's moonwashed skies. I missed it altogether two nights ago. It was a faint, small (7 arc minute) streak slightly brighter towards the middle. It would be superb in dark skies. |

| N_4606 | N | 12h 41m 0s | 11° 55m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A faint, small, smudge. It looks like an Sb in it's WikiSky photo. There was no sign of the companion galaxy, NGC 4607, an edge on Sc of 13th mv. |
| N_4608 | N | 12h 41m 12s | 10° 9m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A spiral between NGC 4596 and Rho Vir. Burnham lists it as an A0/Sba. It's nucleus is fainter than NGC 4596's. |

| N_4631 | N | 12h 42m 6s | 32° 32m 0s | C-11 | LBRP | 2010 4 10 22:37:24 | A large, very elongated streak with what seemed to be sharply delinated edges. The left edge was quite bright. (Edge on Sc. Left edge was the nucleus.) |
| N_4638 | N | 12h 42m 48s | 11° 26m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-04 22:30:00 | A faint, almost star like, galaxy. There was no sign of the much fainter NGC 4637. Both galaxies appear to be spirals on WikiSky's photographic atlas, although HNGC lists NGC 4638 as an elliptical. Burnham lists it as an E5/S0. |

I suspect that the two are interacting, but photos do not show any significant distortion of the outer envelopes. A chance line up? Hard to tell. I saw both galaxies as spirals, but only NGC 4647 is. Burnham lists it as an Sc. |

| I_4593 | N | 16h 11m 42s | 12° 4m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 6 2 0:48:13 | A tiny, (~3") bright, blue planetary, looking brighter than its 11mv in Sinnott's NGC. Also listed as a Tycho and Hipparcos star. |

Burnham gives the spectra as K0, but that's unlikely, both look like A stars to me. I saw 0 degrees pa, recent observations at U of South Alabama give a position angle of 356. I saw 5 arc second separation, they 4. I saw 7Mv, they saw 7.3 - 7.7 Mv. A very nice pair. |
| STF2029 | D | 16h 13m 47.81s | 28° 43m 55s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 5 20 2:29:31 | A nice, unequal pair. As per the WDS. |

| N_6093 | N | 16h 17m 0s | -22° 59' 0" | C-8 | B | 2008-07-25 22:00:00 | AKA NGC 6903. A faint ball of mist, awash in the light pollution of our urban, southern sky. Needs a revisit in dark skies, this is a spectacular cluster there. |
| NP Her | V | 16h 17m 9.53s | 25° 51m 19.06s | C-8 | B | 2008-03-17 03:00:00 | The star hardly displayed any color at all. White with a tinge of red. It's perhaps the faintness, as it was as bright as a 10.5 mv (Tycho) or 11.4 (Hipparcos) star. |
| SHJ 226 | D | 16h 20m 30.58s | -20° 6' 51" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 5 20 2:35:25 | A superb pair, with SHJ 225 just west. As per the WDS. |

| STT 312 | D | 16h 23m 59.51s | 61° 30m 50s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 5 5 1:11:41 | AKA Eta Draconis. The companion is a faint spot on the diffraction pattern at 150° pa, as per the WDS. |
| STF2044 | D | 16h 24m 10.4s | 37° 2m 11s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 9 13 21:13:35 | A lovely pair of pale yellow stars, as per the WDS. |

| H 2 19 | D | 16h 25m 35.11s | -23° 26' 49" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 5 20 2:54:0 | A splendid pair, I see pa 335, WDS sees 150? I do agree with 4", but subtract 180° from my 335° and we're close. |
| H 2 19 | D | 16h 25m 35.11s | -23° 26' 49" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 6 19 0:59:18 | Rho Oph. A superb pair of yellow stars, embedded in nebulosity. |

| N_6144 | N | 16h 27m 18s | -26° 2' 0" | C-8 | P | 2008-07-03 00:00:00 | This was fainter than expected, but the skies were perhaps not totally dark, and the cluster was still in the eastern dome of commercial light. A few stars were seen with averted vision. Between Antares and M4 |
| N_6139 | N | 16h 27m 42s | -38° 51' 0" | C-11 | Pinnacles | 2010 7 3 23:36:45 | Faint, diffuse, unresolved cluster, small, bright nucleus. |

| STF2048 | D | 16h 28m 49s | -8° 7' 43" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 5 10 2:21:37 | A nice, unequal pair, as per the WDS. |
| STF2052 | D | 16h 28m 52.67s | 18° 24m 50s | C-8 | B | 2008-06-02 22:00:00 | I record a separation of 2.7 arc seconds and a position angle of 128°, WDS gives 2.7 arc seconds, position angle 121°. |
| GNT 1 | D | 16h 29m 24.46s | -26° 25' 55" | C-8 | B | 2008-08-09 09:30:00 | AKA Antares. It was elongated in position angle approximately 270. This is probably the elusive companion. The elongation was invisible in the 30mm, barely discernable in the 12.5, and obvious in the 5mm. In the 5, it looked as if Antare's diffraction pattern had a permanent spike in it at position angle 270. |
| STF2051 | D | 16h 29m 25.05s | 10° 35m 31s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 6 2 0:59:48 | A nice pair, as per the WDS. |
| KOU 64 | D | 16h 29m 54.59s | -24° 58' 46" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 6 2 1:10:13 | Star found, but the companion was unseen. Not in Burhnam. 4th Interferometric catalog list the separation as < 0.1" (1989). |
| STF2056 | D | 16h 31m 38.54s | 5° 26m 1s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 6 2 22:24:0 | An OK pair, as per the WDS. |

| STFA 30 | D | 16h 36m 14.05s | 52° 55m 27s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 9 5 21:11:2 | A superb triple star, the northernmost component is double. Like Mizar. One of the best. |

| STFA 31 | D | 16h 40m 38.68s | 4° 13m 11s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-09 22:00:00 | A swept up double. A pair of white stars of 5 - 6 Mv, 80" apart, position angle not recorded. Also known as 36 and 37 Her. They are listed as an A1 and A3, but look pastel yellow and blue. WDS gives separation as 67.8, and position angle as 233. |

| N_6205 | N | 16h 41m 42s | 36° 28m 0s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-22 23:00:00 | A glorious sight, despite the moonlight. Hundreds of stars, in a glow of thousands, like spilled sugar. |
| N_6205 | N | 16h 41m 42s | 36° 28m 0s | C-8 | B | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | This cluster was truly dazzling, as when observed with my well dark adapted eye, it looked extremely bright with hundreds of stars enveloped in a bright nebulosity of all the fainter ones. |
| STF2085 | D | 16h 42m 26.09s | 21° 35m 34s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 6 2 22:30:44 | A nice pair, as per the WDS. |

WDS lists them as G5s, but I saw them as white, with a tinging of red. Approximately 4" sep and position angle = 300 degrees. (WDS: 6.5", 288, 2009). |
| N_6207 | N | 16h 43m 6s | 36° 50m 0s | C-8 | P | 2008-05-28 23:00:00 | A streak in position angle 30°. Sb? Burnham: Sc. Just NE of M 13. |
| N_6207 | N | 16h 43m 6s | 36° 50m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2009 8 14 21:12:20 | A ghost of a galaxy, a barely visible smudge in tonight's light polluted skies. Seen only with the aid of the finder chart. |

| N_6204 | N | 16h 46m 30s | -47° 1' 0" | C-8 | P | 2007-09-12 21:30:00 | A large cluster, not at bright as M 10, but much more compact, with much fainter stars. It looked a bit elongated to me, in position angle 70 degrees. The cluster was easily granulated, but individual stars were hard to see. It's brightest stars are 14 mv, with most under 20th (Kogon, et al, Astronomical Journal, Vol. 79, p. 387 (1974)) |
| N_6204 | N | 16h 46m 30s | -47° 1' 0" | C-8 | P | 2008-07-25 22:00:00 | AKA NGC 6402. Invisible in the aurora commercialias. |
| N_6229 | N | 16h 47m 0s | 47° 32m 0s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-22 23:00:00 | Looks like a bright elliptical galaxy. There was the slightest bit of mottling in the cluster, visible with averted vision and 163x. It looked more condensed than its class VII type indicates. Early observers (Herschel, Webb) saw this as a planetary nebula. The brightest stars are reported as 15.5 Mv, it's not suprising that I didn't resolve this one! |
| N_6218 | N | 16h 47m 12s | -1° 57' 0" | C-8 | B | 2008-04-02 02:00:00 | As large as M5, but more sparse. This cluster needs rural skies to be seen to full advantage. |
| N_6218 | N | 16h 47m 12s | -1° 57' 0" | C-8 | P | 2008-07-03 00:00:00 | A large, loose cluster. Approximately 75 stars were seen with direct vision. |

| STF3107 | D | 16h 58m 50.28s | 3° 58m 1s | C-8 | B | 2007-07-02 22:00:00 | A rather faint double, 2 9th magnitude stars in Ophiuchus. With the 56mm eyepiece, the star looked single, with the 24.5, it was barely elongated, with the 6mm, it was cleanly split. The stars were faint enough that the diffraction rings were almost invisible. |

I saw at least 30 of them, and granulation indicating many more. I suspect that Burnham, who mentions that the stars are 12th and below is correct. A most magnificient assemblage of stars. |
| N_6325 | N | 17h 18m 0s | -23° 46' 0" | C-8 | P | 2008-07-03 00:00:00 | This cluster looks like a faint, diffuse E0 galaxy. There was no granulation. |

| N_6333 | N | 17h 19m 12s | -18° 31' 0" | C-8 | P | 2008-07-03 00:00:00 | A bright, glowing mass of stars. Approximately 100 seen with averted and direct vision. Averted vision was washed out by the brightness of the mass of stars. |

| N_6342 | N | 17h 21m 12s | -19° 35' 0" | C-11 | pinnacles | 2009 9 13 21:44:46 | A rather small GC, the stars are faint, I only glimpsed ~4 of them. The center was fairly bright. |
| N_6356 | N | 17h 23m 36s | -17° 49' 0" | C-8 | P | 2008-07-03 00:00:00 | A small, bright cluster. It looked granulated, despite the HRNGC's assertion that the stars were 20th Mv and below. |

| I_1257 | N | 17h 27m 6s | -7° 6' 0" | C-8 | P | 2007-09-12 21:45:00 | One of the faintest objects I've ever seen. It was a barely preceptible but persistent brightening of the sky. A 13.7 magnitude star just south of it was easily seen. SEDS gives its overall integrated magnitude as 13.1. An HR diagram (Harris, et al, Astronomical Journal v.113, p.688-691 (1997)) shows it's brightest star to be 16 mv. Other data:http://www.mporzio.astro.it/~marco/gc/ |

| N_6384 | N | 17h 32m 24s | 7° 4m 0s | C-11 | Pinnacles | 2010 7 4 0:8:27 | A slightly oblong smudge, in what appears to be pa 20°. (WikiSky shows it to be closer to 40°. So much for position angle estimates from and alt-azimuth mount!) |

| N_6401 | N | 17h 38m 36s | -23° 55' 0" | C-11 | Pinnacles | 2009 9 13 21:56:8 | A faint cluster, very close to the horizon. Tonight's seeing is terrible, there is a wind gusting to 15mph. I could not resolve any stars. There is a 10mv foreground star (HD 160023) on the cluster's SE edge. It is unlikely I would have resolved it anyway, as the brightest stars come in at 16 mv. |

| SV Oph | V | 17h 56m 24.78s | 3° 22m 33.4s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-09 22:00:00 | A red orange star of approximately 8 Mv, seen while sweeping. Not in SAO. Seen at 17h 57m 30s, +2 degrees 42'. Burnham (precessed to 2007) gives 17h 56m 46.07s, 3° 22m 29.36s. I saw the star as approximately 8.5 Mv, Burnham says it's 9.4 to 13 Mv. The AAVSO chart seems to reflect the field in which I saw the star. |

The "Trifid" nature is not so apparent, as it's difficult to see the dark lanes cutting the nebula into 3 parts. It looks more like a cloud crossed by some slightly darker lines. There is a concentration of stars about the nebula, but the entire field looks like a cluster, which, in a way it is: the Sagittarius arm cluster! |

Its brilliance is a bit overshadowed by the brightness of the milky way that forms a background to the cluster. The cluster is easily resolved with direct vision, and seemingly hundreds of stars are in plain view. Averted vision shows a luminous mass of stars, looking like a pile of spilled sugar. |

While both components are members of the same cluster, they are too widely separated to be considered to be a double. |
| STF2415 | D | 18h 54m 32.84s | 20° 36m 55s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2009 10 11 20:17:32 | A close double, pa ~ 320°, ~2" sep. |

There are several pairs in this region, and this was the first I happened upon. WDS lists the position angle as 40 degrees, I saw it as 315 degrees. 2011 update. I suspect this was not ES 2490, but another star. |

The larger aperature overwhelms the colors, and they appear pale gold and blue in sharp focus. A bit of defocusing allows the colors to become more pronounced. |
| N_6803 | N | 19h 31m 18s | 10° 3m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 8 30 21:35:35 | Field not found? Need to check. |

WDS: 9.21-10.37 Mv, position angle 279,and 10.6 sep. WikiSky agrees with WDS. I read the mirror flip of the field for some reason. |

| N_6811 | N | 19h 38m 12s | 46° 34m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 10 1 22:5:56 | Hardly a brightening of the milky way. The true cluster seems to be 20' southwest of the marked position of this one. WikiSky: 6811 is a very low contrast clump of stars, probably a real cluster. The"true" cluster is a chance grouping of 9 7...9mv stars. I suspect that it, too might be a cluster. |
| STF2545 | D | 19h 38m 43.36s | -10° 9' 23" | C-8 | B | 2007-08-06 22:00:00 | An unequal double 7-8.5 Mv. Lackluster, especially in these extremely hazy skies. |
| S 722 | D | 19h 39m 12.96s | -16° 54' 28" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 6 11 2:35:23 | A superb pair of white stars, as per the WDS. |
| N_6809 | N | 19h 40m 0s | -30° 58' 0" | C-8 | P | 2007-10-13 21:00:00 | A bright, large, loose globular with quite a few bright stars involved with it. I estimated these to be 11.5 mv. Oddly, the color magnitude diagram shows only 1 or 2 12th magnitude stars, and quite a few 14th and below stars. The cluster was easily resolved. |
| STF2573 | D | 19h 40m 13.2s | 60° 30m 25s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 10 24 20:30:20 | A nice, unequal pair, as per the WDS. |

| TT Cyg | V | 19h 40m 56.98s | 32° 37m 1.7s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-21 03:00:00 | A yellow star with strong brown overtones. A weird color for a star, like a tungsten light bulb seen through a brown filter. Approximately 7.5 Mv. |
| N_6819 | N | 19h 41m 18s | 40° 11m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 10 24 20:34:29 | A rich cluster of faint (11mv...) stars seen only with averted vision in tonight's moonwashed, hazy skies. Perhaps better in darker skies |
| N_6819 | N | 19h 41m 18s | 40° 11m 0s | C-11 | LBRP | 2011 7 2 1:5:1 | A lovely cluster, in tonight's dark skies. |

They share the same declination, and are a little over a degree apart. I saw a position angle of approximately 135, WDS reports the position angle is 141. The two yellow stars looked a bit like distant headlights. My separation was approximately 30 d, WDS, 37 degrees. |
| STFA 46 | D | 19h 41m 49.09s | 50° 31m 31s | C-8 | B | 2008-06-08 02:30:00 | AKASTFA 46. I record 39.3 arc seconds separation and 135° position angle, WDS: 37 arc seconds separation and 133° position angle, 2010. |

| N_6823 | N | 19h 43m 6s | 23° 18m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 6 11 2:45:34 | I see a quadruple star of ~9-10mv stars within a 2' field. This does not appear to be a cluster. It is a cluster, with around 4 bright stars and the rest are fairly faint, embedded in nebulosity. |
| N_6824 | N | 19h 43m 42s | 56° 7m 0s | C-11 | LBRP | 2010 10 8 21:35:35 | A small, faint patch, requiring averted vision. Sb |
| N_6824 | N | 19h 43m 42s | 56° 7m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 5 5 1:36:38 | A faint smudge, somewhat brighter in the middle. |
| N_6818 | N | 19h 44m 0s | -14° 9' 0" | C-8 | P | 2007-09-12 22:00:00 | A bright, pale blue doughnut. The "ring" shape of this nebula was barely apparent, it's central region was much brighter than M57's. When I looked directly at the nebula, it seemed to vanish, as my fovea could not see it. |
| STF2567 | D | 19h 44m 6.09s | 12° 22m 21s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 12 15 18:53:15 | A wide, lackluster pair, as per the WDS. |
| N_6826 | N | 19h 44m 48s | 50° 31m 0s | C-8 | B | 2006-10-08 20:00:00 | A small, bright planetary. "Blinks" nicely at 133x. It appears grey, I could not see any green or blue color. |
| N_6826 | N | 19h 44m 48s | 50° 31m 0s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-21 03:00:00 | The "blinking" planetary appeared as a fuzzy star surrounded by nebulosity. I couldn't make it blink much, perhaps due to the brightness of the surrounding sky. One of the brighter planetaries. |
| N_6826 | N | 19h 44m 48s | 50° 31m 0s | C-8 | B | 2008-06-08 02:30:00 | I saw the central star, but could not make it "blink". It takes darker skies for that. A nice deep sky object for urban skies, however. |
| N_6822 | N | 19h 44m 54s | -14° 48' 0" | C-8 | P | 2007-09-12 22:00:00 | This galaxy appears to be a star cloud in the milky way. It's very low contrast, and seems to be oriented in north-south direction, position angle approximately 0 degrees. It is very hard to see, even at 36x. |
| STF2570 | D | 19h 44m 56.78s | 10° 46m 30s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 12 15 18:58:51 | A nice, unequal pair. As per the WDS. |

| STF2578 | D | 19h 45m 39.65s | 36° 5m 27s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-24 03:00:00 | A very pale yellow and blue pair. Burnham and bright star list the primary as a B9. To make it appear yellow, there must be a bit of interstellar reddening. |
| H 5 137 | D | 19h 45m 51.35s | 35° 0m 45s | C-8 | B | 2006-10-08 20:00:00 | A wide double with delicate yellow-blue colors. |

| STF2588 | D | 19h 49m 0.9s | 44° 22m 45s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-24 03:00:00 | Tonight's hazy skies caused what should have been a nice pair in a beautiful field to be lackluster. |
| STF2588 | D | 19h 49m 0.9s | 44° 22m 45s | C-8 | B | 2007-08-31 23:00:00 | This pair was much nicer in tonight's skies, even with the waning gibbous moon than it was previously. |

| N_6830 | N | 19h 51m 0s | 23° 4m 0s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 10 29 19:13:17 | A cluster of ~8 stars brighter than 11mv, with a faint haze of dimmer ones. Hardly more than a chance clump in the milky way, visually. WikiSky does not show many dim ones, just the normal background of the milky way. |
| STF2587 | D | 19h 51m 26.82s | 4° 5m 19s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 12 15 19:6:42 | A difficult pair, in tonight's moon washed sky. The compaion was all but invisible, seen well only with the 9mm, barely glimpsed in lower powers, it's lost in the bright sky and glare of the primary. As per the WDS. |
| STT 389 | D | 19h 51m 41.32s | 31° 8m 16s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 12 15 19:13:59 | An OK pair in a field of wide pairs I noticed at least 5 wide, faint doubles in the 18mm field. As per the WDS. |

| N_6838 | N | 19h 53m 48s | 18° 47m 0s | C-8 | B | 2007-08-17 22:00:00 | Perhaps a slight brightening of the sky, pretty much invisible in tonight's washed out skies. |

| AX Cyg | V | 19h 57m 13s | 44° 15m 40.34s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-21 03:00:00 | A yellow white star with very strong red overtones. Sometimes looks quite red, sometimes almost white, depending on the degree of averted vision. It appeared to be 8 Mv, not 9, as stated in Burnham. The companion was not seen. |
| BU 1475 | D | 19h 57m 53.7s | -9° 3' 30" | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2010 10 12 20:16:57 | A lovely quadruple star, BU 1475 lining up with S 143953 almost exactly. As per the WDS. |
| Cyg_X1 | N | 19h 58m 18s | 35° 2m 0s | C-8 | B | 2007-06-24 03:00:00 | The celebrated X ray source, the first black hole to be recognized as such. A white star that appeared lackluster in these overly hazy skies. It might appear more brilliant in clearer skies. |

| N_6853 | N | 19h 59m 36s | 22° 43m 0s | C-8 | B | 2007-09-12 22:30:00 | Wow. In dark skies, this is spectacular. The southern "bell" is the brighter, and hints of mottling were seen. The nebula itself was washed out blue in color. The star field around it is dazzling. |
| STF2619 | D | 20h 1m 1.69s | 48° 15m 28s | C-8 | Little Tycho | 2011 11 3 20:2:1 | A lovely pair, as per the WDS. |
