Description:
Easy to find, just east of the 3.8mag 2-star before setting. I was trying to
find hints of the extensions. Saturn Nebula was elongate from north to south,
and I caught a hint of the extensions to the north end, but not the south end?
It was visible with averted vision, but I couldnt see any more.
