Re: (meteorobs) [amastro] Re: M81 with the unaided eye



Hi all!

> 5.2.  M81 is listed at 6.9, so I guess I am out of the "direct vision

Remeber that it is TOTAL magnitude including faint arms of a galaxy.
I question this detection. It was possible phenomen wich I call 
'ghost comet'. When eye reach limit especially when you searching for
diffuse objects (like comets) using averted vision sometimes you see
suspected nebula.
