MESSIER 56 | M56 GLOBULAR CLUSTER LYRA LIVE FOOTAGE | 200mm NEWTONIAN REFLECTOR | FIRST ATTEMPT

M56, Messier 56 or NGC 6779 in Lyra is a faint Deep Sky Target (DSO) for the summer months and is high in the sky throughout August. It is a faint target and this was my first attempt with the 8inch on the NEQ6, visual observing of M56 in any size telescope will show a faint grey fuzz, with 8 inch or larger you will begin resolving the center stars of the cluster.

I hope that these videos can give you an idea of how the planets look at the eyepiece of a 200 PDS, 200p, 300p flextube or any 200mm 8 inch or 300mm 12 inch reflector telescope. I find when trying to purchase a telescope, it is hard to picture what you can see through the eyepiece .
