Deep Sky Observing in Cassiopeia (Society Talk)

Many thanks to Daryl Dobbs who visited us this evening to tell us about deep sky observing in Cassiopeia. There are many objects in Cassiopeia that are observed as often as others in the sky. These include 
the Bubble Nebula, variable stars, orange star cluster, lobster claw emission nebula, Pac-man nebula, Heart and Soul Nebula, Tycho's supernova and Caroline Herschel's white rose.

The bubble nebula, lobster claw and Pac-man nebula are pictured below. Thank you again Daryl, we're sure our members will be looking out for some of these next time they're out imaging!
