More like a 10" to get Saturn that clearOriginally posted by Sea of red View PostMost amateur telescopes have mirrors that are too small to absorb light from deep sky bodies.
Saturn will look something like this in a 4-inch reflector.
Andromeda will look like this in a 6-inch reflector.
, but yes for Andromeda. I haven't had my scope out in a while, but andromeda and orion at a dark site are pretty close to unbelievable in terms of how good they look.

The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.Comment

This is one of my favorite objects. It is the wake of a very fast moving neutron star, over 1000 miles per second! The grouping shows change over the years as the shock wave propagates out and the neutron star continues its journey through space.
