M110
Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy in
Andromeda
NGC 205
Mag 8.9
05/11/12
Hazy,
Smokey 21:00 to 23:00
06/07/13
Surprisingly faint, a smudge on the sky
31/08/13
Very
faint and diffuse in 12mm
19/11/13
More
rounded than usual in a moonlit FOV in 12mm but very distinct
25/06/14
Appears surprisingly faint and diffuse
Yes, it is at Mag 8.9 and is lost in the glare of M31 in 25mm
whereas M32 is a sharp and well defined blob at Mag 8.1
20/08/14
A faint diffuse haze which nevertheless still fills a good
portion of the 12mm FOV
26/08/16
Fantastic, filling the whole FOV is M31 with M32 as a very
tight, bright and distinct ball above it where as M110 is
surprisingly faint and actually sits outside the 12mm FOV from
M31 and has a completely different look to M32, very hazy but
much larger
28/09/16
M31, M32 and M110 viewed in 18mm where the dense core
spreads right across the FOV and the hazy outer reaches
spread for perhaps another FOV either side
The 18mm gives a dark background as its FOV is not as wide
as the 12mm Plossl or the 25mm Ortho and really sets M31
and its attendant Galaxies off
M32 is small, very spherical and tight and really bright
and easy to locate, unlike M110 sitting further out on the
other side of M31, which appears as a wispy but large
patch with no hint of shape or structure
