All's not as it appears, this tale has many twists -
but if I wasn't here documenting the story
would that mean that the plot did not exist?

NGC4236 in DRACO

This edge on galaxy is very small in my 4" refractor, this image is a cropped section which allows for a better view, especially since the galaxy is only 10.10 magnitude.  It is a combined 25 x 5 min exposures.   Next week I will try my newer refractor, 127mm and compare the images. And we can look foreward to seeing and imaging SATURN which will rise at sunset and be up all night.
