NGC 7331 near Stephan's Quintet
08/08/06 08:26 PM

Hey Edz,

I was out with my 16" dob a couple of weeks ago, and was amazed to be able to spot NGC7331 with 7x50 binoculars.

We were in a supposedly "dark" site, but the background mag was measured at 20.5, so maybe not that dark after all.

I wonder how many of you bino addicts have tried NGC7331 (the bigger of the Deer Lick Group, in PEG, close to Stephan's quintet) with binoculars. In just a pair of 7x50 it looked amazing.

Cheers,
T.
