    One more aside… We put Luka's 38mm wide angle eyepiece in Kirk's very fine telescope and turned it on M57, the Ring Nebula in Lyra.

    WOW!!! In the FOV, you could see both Beta and Delta Lyrae with the Ring Nebula clearly defined in between! I have never seen that before and it was totally awesome. What a telescope and eyepiece combination!

    I just have to get that 38mm eyepiece, and I highly encourage everyone in the RAC to get a look through it as well, along with Kirk's excellent telescope.

    Clear skies, everyone!
