Will I see galaxies tonight?
I've learned that using a telescope is a lot more involved than I had expected. (But also more fun.) I have spotted Saturn and learned several stars and constellations. But I really want to see something more interesting, like a galaxy. Weather ruined my previous plan, so tonight I am hoping for better luck. The weather is supposed to be clear or partly cloudy.
I have four galaxies picked out:
- Bode's Galaxy (M81)
- Cigar Galaxy(M82)
- M108
- M109
All four galaxies are near The Big Dipper, which is easy to find.
