Week of Oct 27- Nov 2 (3h)
This week at the stargaze, the sky was clear with a few scattered clouds. The moon was a waning crescent and did not hinder our view of the stars and celestial objects (sky of magnitude of 5). With the aid of telescopes and binoculars we were able to observe various M objects in the fall night sky. The stars that compose the Summer triangle as well as the Great Square of Pegasus were clearly visible. I observed M31 and M13 through binoculars. We were also able to observe M57, M27, and M11 through a telescope. Near the end of the stargaze we observed the ISS passing through our field of view.
