It just cleared... and i found M89.

It was a miracle, it cleared after midnight on the 10th and i easily tackled M89, another virgo cluster object.

It was a oval with a odd looking core. The core was mottled. This object was near a bright white star.

I now have four messiers left( and they are all summer objects!!)

Nice going, I've been stargazing for a few months and still waiting for a glimpse of our nearest star

Nice one. I think your Herschel 400 count must be above zero, as quite a few Messiers are in that list too.
