Observing Notes

Sep 16, 2020 Waikoloa, HI (map)
20cm f/6 Newtonian, Cave Astrola @ 76x
Seeing: 6 Transparency: 7 Moon: 0%
Not much to be seen when the coordinates are confirmed, at best a modest concentration of the very rich galactic starfield perhaps 5' in diameter, rich, partially resolved, indeed much of the field is rich with some dark structure to the north and west, no surprise this close to the galactic center
