tim carson Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 can anybody t ell me how much the moon in its waxing half or gibbous will affect our ability to see nebula or other deep sky objects ; will filters such as the lumicon or dgm npb help ?

BeanerSA Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Anytime it's up, regardless of it's illumination, it affects seeing. Hunting for faint fuzzies is best done around new moon. Filters don't really help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laudropb Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Filters will help you to see some types of nebula better, but they will not combat moonlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
