m1=11.6 Dia. 3.0 DC=5... 20cm L 72x This was the first time that I detected a significant extension to the coma. Coma extended 2' in P.A. 120 degrees. There was a hint of a stellar central condensation at 150x. Note the drawing is exaggerated in terms of brightness, contrast and tone...most of the visible features were only apparent with averted vision. |
