Will it be a challenge, or is it an easy find with mag 4.5-5 skies? -------------------- -Jake the Snake My equipment: Orion DSE 10" Light Bucket! 10x50 Finder and ebay bracket 40mm GSO Plossl 32mm Celestron Plossl 2x Antares Barlow 25mm and 6.7mm Meade 3000 Plossls Orion Explorer II 10mm and 17mm Kellners Orion SkyGlow Ultrablock Antares ND25 70 M's Obsreved All Planets seen Post Extras:       GlennLeDrew professor emeritus Reged: 06/18/08 Posts: 630 Loc: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Re: NGC7184 [Re: JakeT93]       #2603908 - 08/26/08 12:22 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   At 11.8m it could be somewhat difficult in a 10" under the rather bright skies you indicate. Perhaps the core region is all you might glimpse? -------------------- Home-made 11X50 right angle bino, 8.1 deg. FOV Modified 26X100 bino, 3.5 deg. FOV Mediocre minds discuss people.

Somewhat brighter center. Faint star nf halo in line with the orientation. Good viewing to you!
