First Light Report

The ObDob saw first light at its new home at the Two Mile Canyon Observatory last night. Skies were... ok. Intermittent clouds randomly dimmed my view from time to time... alternating my views of M15 between nice & not so nice. As the clouds would pass, the view would get dramatically brighter... allowing me to resolve stars right into the core. I made use of a 15mm TeleVue for views to about 200x.
Tonight's forecast is calling for clear, transparent and relatively steady skies. I'm hoping to hit The Andromeda Galaxy and The Planet Mars (among others).
