My observing log has only 22 objects in Capricornus, and 407 in Cetus (a superb constellation, by the way, for great galaxies), vs 708 in Virgo and 528 in Ursa Major. Capricornus would appear to be a great "dead spot". I don't spend much time there, obviously. -------------------- Don Pensack 12.5" Truss Dob, 5" Maksutov Sustaining Lifetime IDA member, TeleVue junkie Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius FirstSight 07/28/08 10:57 AM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius bicparker   07/28/08 11:58 AM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius astrokido   07/28/08 01:31 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius tatarjj   07/28/08 01:58 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius FirstSight   07/28/08 05:34 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius Tony Flanders   07/29/08 08:35 AM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius FirstSight   07/29/08 08:56 AM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius DeepSpaceTour   08/03/08 06:05 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius HfxObserver   07/29/08 10:01 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius Starman1   07/29/08 10:32 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius Bill Weir   07/30/08 03:07 AM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius bicparker   07/30/08 05:47 AM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius tatarjj   07/30/08 09:17 AM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius Tony Flanders   07/30/08 09:35 AM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius tatarjj   07/30/08 01:02 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius tatarjj   07/30/08 01:14 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius moron392   07/28/08 03:38 PM Re: The vast "empty quarter" east of Sagittarius Tony Flanders   07/28/08 11:28 AM Extra information 1 registered and 0 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
