M33

Updated: 3.23.03

In the Stellarvue AT1010 80mm refractor, M33 is just about the right size, although a 90 degree rotation of the camera would have been better still. While a very large object (located in Triangulum), this galaxy has a very low surface brightness, making it somewhat difficult to see visually. It is easily detected using binoculars in dark skies.
