At moderate high powers, in my 10" newt, a few streamers of stars can be seen meeting at the core - appearing similar to a propeller. Some say the effect is the same but with dark lanes. The whole effect may be a trick of the mind but it's a nice illusion. Yes, M13 is the northern sky showpiece but compared to Omega Centauri, it pales in observing beauty. Even at 10 degrees above my southern horizon, its beauty is awesome. Mr Q
