Sunday night saw a surprisingly clear sky with very little i the way of cloud cover. Started with M31, as I had unfinished business there. Firstly, worked out a foolproof way to starhop quickly to M31, then set about hunting for M32. My first thought was that tis was the best view of M31 I have had to date with the new Dob. From there, M32 was very small in comparison, but relatively easy to spot. The previous time I was out in this part of the sky, there was no sign of M110. This time, however, I managed to spot the faint blur of M110 with a lot of inverted vision.

Also spotted my first ever pair of satellites in close formation. All in all, a god night out with the scope.
