It was very strange and I've never seen that before. I didn't think to try without my glasses. But what I noticed earlier in the evening was that without them my astigmatism is apparent. I never noticed this before either. I am learning new things as my observation skills get more refined, I guess.
How do I determine the limiting magnitude where I am observing? I think there are certain star groups that depending on which stars are detected by naked eye, the LM is determined?
